Two canoes, with Maori chapel of raupo beyond them in the middle ground and a European yacht beyond that. On the background hill to the right, the whalers' lookout "Tutaewera", aand on the central hill, a zig-zag Maori path running up the Ngaio Gorge area. The background range shows British Peak on the left and Mount Kaukau on the right. The file print during 1970s and 80s attributed to John Pearse and titled "Wellington". However, it pre-dates Pearse's time in Wellington during the 1850s. Other Titles - Wellington. John Pearse. See article about this picture in Kapa-Mana News 20 August 1980, by William Secker. The painting is pre-1845, since the Hutt Road is not yet formed. The architecture of the raupo huts on the left shows the whalers' influence, with the tree-trunk verandah posts. If the attribution to Robert Park is correct, the work could be as early as 1840. Quantity: 1 photograph(s). Physical Description: [Photograph of] watercolour, size unknown
