Description

Bernard Smith (1916-2011) was arguably Australia's greatest art historian and one of the most important humanist thinkers internationally on ideas concerning cultural contact.
This illustrated edition of Smith's classic study on the Europeans' interpretation of the Pacific discusses the artists who accompanied all the voyages of the late 18th and early 19th centuries and their relations to the scientists of their day.
