Description

Title of each panel is written above it.

Godber's notes on Puhoro: Puhoro is more complicated in structure. The effect is produced by happy arrangement and contrast. In one part the colour, and in another the white, seeming to present the pattern. This was painted by Natauahira Te Keteiwi in 1850, in a whare at Kaiti, Gisborne. It also appeared shorn of much of its boldness in the original Maori Church at Manutukea, Te Arai, Poverty Bay.

Quantity: 3 watercolour(s).
