Artist unknown :[Aorere, Golden Bay ca 1843. Wellington], Associated Group Holdings [19...

Date: 1843 - 1850

By: Spooner, James Swinton, 1816-1884; Associated Group Holdings Ltd

Reference: B-086-046

Description: Extensive view from a high point over Wainui Inlet and Golden Bay, with a promontory in the right foreground, with Maori drying fish (including stingrays) on racks, individuals and groups standing and sitting. Tata Beach is at the far left foreground of the picture, at Abel Tasman Point. A cabbage tree is in the left foreground, more fish-racks, tents and long canoes, some with masts and sails on the beach below in the foreground, with other Maori. A large European vessel in full sail near the shore and two other larger European ships and two smaller out in the deeper water of the bay. A small island is to the right is Taupo Point, an island now only at high tide. The other island further away is one of the Tata Islands. The hills in the distance across the water are, to the right, the Wakamarama Range, with Mount Burnett on the far right and the Aorere Valley to the left of it. The highest peak on the left is Parapara Peak, and further to the left are the lower hills near Takaka.. The original watercolour in the Library's collection (C-030-019) was purchased from description and assumed to be the work of Charles Heaphy, but seen to be too primitive in style for him. Another suggestion has been W.F.E.Liardet, but it is not his style. Also suggested has been James Swinton Spooner, an artist and surveyor with the New Zealand Company in Nelson in 1843. However, the Library has no other examples of his work with which to make a comparison. The Maori activities and the absence of any major European presence (apart from the ships) do suggest a date in the 1840s. Compare also Charles Heaphy's The Anchorage at Massacre Bay, with very similar terrain. Modern Aorere is upstream from the coast on the Aorere River Quantity: 1 colour photo-mechanical print(s). Physical Description: Photolithograph 460 x 355 mm
