Artist unknown :[HMS Galatea with Royal Party anchored off Kororareka, Russell, Bay of ...

Date: 1869

By: Chevalier, Nicholas, 1828-1902; Hoyte, John Barr Clark, 1835-1913; Crowder, John, active 1986-2000

Reference: B-163-013

Paihia is in the background, across the water Attributed by previous owner to Nicholas Chevalier who was an artist on an earlier voyage with the Duke of Edinburgh. However Chevalier was not on the 1869 voyage and the style of the work does not appear to be his. There is no known record of a visit by the Galatea to the Bay of Islands. The ship left Auckland and proceeded to Tahiti. It may have called at the Bay of Islands en route. Inscriptions: No inscriptions on the work itself. Title from mat (discarded by the Library) supplied by a previous dealer. There is an almost identical work in the collection of Auckland Public Library, attributed to J C Hoyte. It is unsigned. The title assigned to it is Looking southwest from Flagstaff Hill over Kororareka. It was formerly in the collection of the Old Colonists Museum, and came into the Library when the Museum closed in 1957. The ships at anchor are assumed to be the American whaling fleet. There are seven ships at anchor. A further, almost identical version of this painting has been identified, housed at the New Bedford Whaling Museum, Massachusetts, in the United States. It is signed and dated 'C.H. [Kennett] Watkins / 1874', with reference number 2001.100.4397. (Information supplied by Lindsay Alexander, Russell, October 2014). Quantity: 1 watercolour(s).

[Jury, Henry] 1806?-1888 :A treat given by Mr B Reeve of Johnsonville, to the school ch...

Date: 1869 - 1920 - 1929

By: Shaw, Agnes Elizabeth, 1872-1938; Jury, Henry, 1806?-1888

Reference: A-320-017

Description: A photograph of an original art work, showing seven Clydesdale horses, with boy riders, pulling a wagon (known as a wood wain or woodwain) decorated with flags and foliage. The horses are controlled by a man standing in the wagon, probably Mr B Reeve. Along the sides of the wagon are seated young women. The location is a plain with distant hills, and the horses' hooves stir up a little dust in their wake. An article in the Evening Post, 10 May 1869, refers to the original painting and states that it was the work of Mr Jury; elsewhere in the Evening Post from the same era there are other references to Mr H Jury as an artist. A copy of the photograph of the painting was published in the Evening Post in 1929. Agnes Shaw is known to have been a photographer in Wellington in the 1920s, and this photograph may have been taken, from the painting, in the 1920s. Quantity: 1 photograph(s). Physical Description: Photograph 117 x 194 mm. Provenance: Mrs Hudson is the great grand-daughter of Mr B Reeve, the subject of the painting.
