Reference: PA1-o-1884

Description: Photograph album containing images of Maori taken circa 1900-1904 by the New Zealand Tourist and Publicity Department. Photographers unidentified but many probably taken by Thomas Pringle who was employed by the Tourist Department in 1901. Compiler of album unidentified. Some images have captions. Images show Maori men, women and children, wearing both European and traditional Maori style clothing, including various types of Maori cloaks. Many are shown involved in Maori cultural activities and mock ceremonies, in poses that appear to have been arranged by the photographer. Despite the title of the album: 'Maori life and scenery', there are no scenic views in this album. One notable series of images shows Lord Ranfurly's visit to the Urewera, the first visit of a governor into the Urewera heartlands in 1904. Ranfurly was accompanied by leading Maori figures including James Carroll and Maui Pomare, as well as war veteran Gilbert Mair and writer/enthnologist Elsdon Best. They include photographs of Te Whai a Te Motu (Wharenui) at Mataatua Marae, Ruatahuna. Other: Many prints have an inscription "New Zealand Government and Tourist Department Protected 7.1.03", however 7 January 1903 is not the date the photographs were taken. It is likely to be the date the image was registered/patented.
