Artist unknown :Otea or Great Barrier Island, New Zealand. [9 or 10 Dec. 1847 or 1843]....

Date: 1847 - 1841 - 1843

By: Bambridge, William, 1819-1879; Scammell, Edward DuBoistel, active 1930s

Reference: A-090-017

Description: Captain Nagle's house on the right, in the middle distance, with other buildings to the left and huts and tents in the foreground. A flag on a hill in the middle distance, a small canoe landing on the shore to the right and a longer Maori war canoe in the water. Compare A-090-018. This view (A-090-017) shows the house in more detail, but lacks the large ship being built as shown in A-090-018. The similarity of the two views appears to be the reason that Chief Librarian Johannes Andersen attributed the work to Bambridge. However the style is not that of Bambridge The drawing is on a page that has been removed from a bound volume, with rust marks down the remains of the gutter. Other Titles - Bambridge, William Inscriptions: Recto - beneath image - title in pencil in Bambridge's hand. In addition there are pencil inscriptions above and below the image in the hand of the Alexander Turnbull Library's Chief Librarian, Johannes Andersen, suggesting the work is by William Bambridge, providing extra information about Nagle, the date of Bambridge's visit and the name of the donor of the work to the Library. Quantity: 1 drawing(s). Physical Description: Pencil and watercolour on paper, 238 x 205 mm
