The long low building in the left background is the Alexandra West Redoubt, while the set of buildings on a low hill in the centre background is the Alexandra East Redoubt. Other Titles - Alexandra and Waikato military camp. Redoubt. Warre Inscriptions: Unsigned and undated.; Verso - centre - [Title] The Library has a black and white copy of the painting at A-113-002, showing it before it was as faded as it now is and while it was in the possession of Mr Lennard. The copy may have been made in the 1960s. The title at the time was given as Alexandra (now Pirongia) ca 1870. Quantity: 1 watercolour(s). Physical Description: Watercolour, 180 x 480 mm. Provenance: Previously sold at Webb's auction, Auckland, March 1981. The Library has coloured photographs from this period showing the watercolour as quite faded. An earlier owner was Mr L. M.
