Artist's Description
Fuegian (Yapoo Tekeenica) at Portrait Cove. Copper engraving from 1838 by Thomas Landseer, art by Conrad Martens, published by Herny Colburn as the frontispiece of Robert Fitzroy's "Narrative of the Surveying Voyages of HMS Adventure and Beagle", Volume II, 1839. To avoid offending Victorian sensibilities the Beagle's artist depicted the Tierra del Fuegians wearing considerably more clothing than was customary. Fitzroy's own agenda on the Voyage of the Beagle with Darwin was to return some native Fuegians he had taken on a previous voyage and tried to "civilize" in Britain. Darwin shared the ship with them on the outward journey. Nothing quite prepared him for the Fuegians in a "state of nature" however. Over thirty years later he wrote in the "Descent of Man" "the astonishment which I felt on first seeing a party of Fuegians on a wild and broken shore will never be forgotten by me, for the reflection at once rushed to my mind - such were our ancestors."
