| dc.description.abstract | This paper examines recently digitized photographs from the collection of Walter Lehmann held by the Ibero-Amerikanisches Institut in Berlin. Most of the photographs originate from the expedition to Easter Island organized by Walter Knoche in April 1911. The photographs depict scenes from daily life on Rapa Nui. There are several named individuals who can be identified in portraits and group photographs. Among those, there are previously unknown images of important native leader María Angata Veritahi a Pengo (c. 1853–1915). The existence of this photograph collection shows continuous interest in Easter Island in the work of Walter Lehmann, an important German ethnologist known primarily from his Mesoamerican studies | |
