Karikatuur van een zeezieke man 1843

"Karikatuur van een zeezieke man" (1843) by Edouard de Beaumont is a satirical lithograph depicting a scene of colonial life in the Marquesas Islands. The image shows three figures, two of whom are Native Marquesan men, with one seated at a table while the other stands, seemingly unfazed by the third figure, a European man leaning heavily against a counter and looking visibly seasick. The work, characteristic of Beaumont's style, satirizes European colonial attitudes and the effects of Western influence on indigenous populations.
