Description: Two cottages enclosed within fenced gardens, with Nelson Haven and ships visible to the right and a road to the left, with families and a horse and cart passing along it. Maplestone is not known to have visited New Zealand and despite the date of 1849 almost certainly copied this image from the lithograph published in C. F. Hursthouse's 'New Zealand, or Zealandia, the Britain of the South' (London, Stanford, 1857), p. 122 - see copy held at A-256-014. The 1849 date is likely reflect the stage to which Nelson was developed, rather than the date of execution. Inscriptions: bottom right - Signed: H Maplestone These two houses were in Selwyn Place, below the Cathedral and approximately where the Nelson Club now is. Mr Butt conducted a school in Upper Collingwood Street. Quantity: 1 watercolour(s). Physical Description: Watercolour, 287 x 446 mm
