It appears that the present figure of a Native Kamchatka man (Kamchadal) takes as its source an amalgamation of two plates engraved by I.G. Georgi in his Description of all Nationalities Living in Russia 1776-1777. The dress finds its source in the engraving entitled 'Kamchadal in a Winter dress', whilst the stick and his kill are copied from the engraving entitled 'Koriak'.
