Arra-maida is one of the best known of any of the Tasmanian aborigines met by the French. When they were on Bruny Island they met a group of women with whom they began a lively exchange. The women listened attentively when surgeon Bellefin sang them a song which was applauded by them all, and then mimicked by one of them, whom Peron called Arra-maida. She added a song and a dance of her own and then applied charcoal-powder to the faces of Peron and Heirisson. Her actions certainly troubled the French - Peron was quite critical of her indecent dancing.$200300942NICOLAS-MARTIN PETIT (17771804),Terre de Diemen : Grou-Agara,copper-plate engraving from the Baudin Expedition Voyages de Decouvertes.,Paris, 1807,31.5 x 24cm.$200300 943NICOLAS-MARTIN PETIT (17771804),Terre de Diemen : Oui-r-kine,copper-plate engraving from the Baudin Expedition Voyages de Decouvertes.,Paris, 1807, Ex 94631.5 x 24cm.Oui-r-kine, was an inhabitant of the area of Port Jackson.$200300 946944 ABORIGINES: A folio of original lithographs and etchings by NICOLAS-MARTIN PETIT (17771804), early European visitors and explorers; some are the original editions and some are the re-issued (or re-engraved) versions Nouvelle-Hollande : Nlle Galles du Sud, issued by other publishers.
