This print titled "Hawaiians in London" transports us back to the vibrant era of the 1920s. The image showcases Kamaki Paru, a remarkable individual who served as the bodyguard to H. R. H. The Prince of Wales during his surf bathing adventures in April 1920. In this monochrome masterpiece captured by Alfieri, we witness a unique fusion of cultures as Hawaiian traditions meet the bustling streets of London. Kamaki Paru stands tall and confident, embodying strength and security while protecting royalty amidst unfamiliar surroundings. The photograph encapsulates an intriguing moment between two worlds colliding; it symbolizes the curiosity and fascination that Europeans held for exotic cultures during this time period. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the power photography possesses to capture history's most extraordinary encounters. Alfieri's lens not only immortalizes Kamaki Paru but also serves as a testament to human connection transcending borders. It reminds us that even in an age defined by political unrest and uncertainty between wars, individuals like Kamaki can bridge divides through their dedication and loyalty. This stunning piece from TopFoto allows us to delve into a forgotten chapter where protection meets adventure, tradition meets modernity, and Hawaii finds its place within the heart of London's elite society.
