notes:
This engraving derived from James Cook, Captain Cook's voyages round the world, Newcastle, 1790, itself taken from a drawing by John Webber, the official artist of Cook's third voyage. Wünsch, a German philosopher, mathematician, and physician, first wrote this anthropological study of mankind in 1770. He focused on culture and man's external appearances.
