Description: Shows the Godley Glacier with a mountain range beyond. This painting is based on Julius von Haast's "From central moraine of the great Godley Glacier, 5 Mar 1862", at C-097-060. The mountains in the background include Mt Petermann (at right alone beyond the smooth surface of the Godley Glacier). The Keith Johnston Range is the longer ridge at centre left. These two are both identified on Haast's original watercolour sketch. From a map, the central peak can be identified as Mount Wolseley. Purchased by the Library as: "Mount Arrowsmith and the Pembroke Glacier, Southern Alps". However it is based on a Haast drawing on which the title is written: "From central terminal moraine of great Godley Glacier, 5 March 1862", together with labelling of Mt Petermann and the Seal[e]y Pass. Gully painted the work in 1863, the year after Haast's original drawing.
