(Captain Cook's Third Voyage.) [Four Views in Hawaii and the South Pacific: View of Owyhee, one of the Sandwich Islands; View of Huahine one of the Society Islands; View of Charlotte Sound in New Zealand (i.e., Matavai Bay, Tahiti); View of Morea one of the Friendly Islands.]

This finely hand-colored set of four aquatints by James and John Cleveley, engraved by Francis Jukes, represents a significant and vibrant visual documentation of Captain James Cook's third and final voyage. These works, allegedly based on James Cleveley's sketches on the spot, later refined by his brother John, encapsulate the journey of HMS Resolution and Discovery through detailed and lively imagery, culminating in the dramatic depiction of Cook's demise in Hawaii.
