"Portret van vijf onbekende inwoners van Futuna" is a small, 95mm x 83mm photograph taken by the English artist George Smith (1808-1833) before 1875. The photo depicts a group of five indigenous people from Futuna, a small island group in the South Pacific. The photo was likely taken during one of Smith's voyages to the area and is a valuable example of early anthropological photography. It offers a glimpse into the lives of people from this region during a significant period of colonial contact and cultural change.
