From La Perouse's Voyage, and engraved by Neele. Jean-François de Galoup, Comte de La Perouse (1741-1788) was a French explorer who explored and mapped the west coast of North America and visited Easter Island in 1786. Rollin, a major in the Perouse expedition, wrote of the island, "Instead of meeting with men exhausted by famine. I found, on the contrary, a considerable population, with more beauty and grace than I afterwards met in any other island; and a soil, which, with very little labor, furnished excellent provisions, and in an abundance more than sufficient for the consumption of the inhabitants." Hunt, T. L.; Lipo, CP (2006). "Late Colonization of Easter Island". Science 311 (5767): 1603-6 La Perouse explored the Sandwich Islands (Hawaii), where he was the first European to land at Maui. He charted Botany Bay in Australia, and perished on a voyage while searching for the Solomon Islands. Published as the Act directs Novr. 1st 1798, by G.G. & J. Robinson, Pater-noster Row. Neele sc.
