[Tempsky, Gustavus Ferdinand von, 1828-1868]:The surrender. Wiremu Thompson - The Gener...

Date: 1865

From: Punch in Canterbury. Vol 1 no 1 (Apr 8 1865) - Vol 1 no 20 (August 19 1865?) [Christchurch, 1865]

By: Tempsky, Gustavus Ferdinand von, 1828-1868

Reference: PUBL-0078-44

Description: The cartoon shows Wiremu Kingi Tarapipi Te Waharoa (Wiremu Thompson after baptism) saying to a Maori chief that 'The general (Carey) is in disgrace you say, and the queen's troops are to be sent away, and the volunteers and rangers are coming against us. Then, Kingi, (Wi Kingi te Rangitake?) the sooner we surrender the better'. To the right in the background is a ship at sea and troops are marching towards it, overseen by Brigadier-General Carey on horseback. A group of volunteer Pakeha troops are marching up from the middle distance on the right. The Cartoon shows the moment when Wiremu Tamehana decides that the Maori must surrender. In 1860 Wiremu Thompson travelled to Taranaki in the roles of negotiator and mediator between Maori and Pakeha. Later, when war broke out in the Waikato, he again acted as peacemaker, but his attempts were not completely appreciated by Pakeha leaders of the time. The drawing is possibly the work of G. F. von Tempsky. The seated woman in the centre is strongly reminiscent of his work, and he is known to have drawn illustrations for 'Punch, or the Wellington Charivari' in the mid-1860s. The reference to the Forest Rangers (led by von Tempsky) also suggests a connection with him. Extended Title - From: Punch in Canterbury. 17 June 1865, p. 44. Quantity: 1 b&w art print(s).
