Description

Photographs, some by identified photographers, chiefly relating to lighthouses in the South Island of New Zealand.

Most of the signed photographs are dated between 1915 and 1919. The unsigned ones were taken in 1924, possibly during a trip to the lighthouses on the Government ship Tutanekai.

Many of the images show aspects of life at remote sites, including travel by dinghy, transportation of cattle using slings to carry them from a ship to a dinghy and then to land, and picknicking on Stewart Island.
