Description: Shows the early accommodation house or hotel at the head of the Pukaki River, the southern end of Lake Pukaki, the ferry over the Pukaki River, part of Ben Ohau and the Liebig Ranges and Mount Cook in the distance. A horse and cart are being moved over the river on the ferry. Compare a photograph of a very similar view supposedly "from a watercolour by E. Norman, entitled [Lake Pukaki showing original accommodation house, since burnt down] Title from ink inscription on secondary support, below image. By the same artist as A-049-036. The hotel was built in 1863. The ferry was built in 1876. Both hotel and ferry were moved to the site shown here at the source of the Pukaki River in 1878. The accommodation house was enlarged in 1885. It caught fire in 1891, but was rebuilt. The site was bridged in 1895. The watercolour must date from between 1878 and 1895, perhaps from the middle period of about 1885. Edmund Norman, referred to in the similar view held by the Library (NON-ATL-0185) died in 1875, the year before the ferry was built and 3 years before the accommodation house was moved to this site. He could not have been the artist of this view (A-049-035) or the related view. Inscriptions: Recto - beneath image - [Title] Quantity: 1 watercolour(s).
