Description

View from the end of the wharf at the foot of Queen Street, looking towards the waterfront buildings and up Queen Street, with Partington's windmill on the skyline. A line of barrels along the wharf and two containers of goods, a man wheeling a wheelbarrow, another wheeling a barrow, two soldiers, other groups of citizens, Maori canoes and a rowboat drawn up at the water's edge on the left and groups of Maori sitting. The Wesleyan (Methodist) Chapel is on the left, above the first row of buildings.

A version in oils of this view is in the Mitchell Library, Sydney. A hand-coloured lithograph is also held (by the Turnbull Library) at C-010-020. The Library also holds watercolour copies of this view by W. S. Hatton, copied from an Illustrated London News wood engraving from this print, at B-078-012 and B-078-017 and the Mitchell, too, has a watercolour copy by Hatton, an English artist who confined his work to copies of views in the Illustrated London News.
