Description: View from the water of a Maori canoe with fifteen Maori on board. Two men are rowing and two other people are holding oars; one a man in European clothes (Tuai) standing near the prow of the waka on the left, the other a woman with a child strapped to her back, standing at the stern on the right. In the background across the water is the steep site of Kahuwera Pa, on the southern shore of the Bay of Islands. Kahuwera Pa was viewed by Duperrey and his crew on 9 April 1824 Based on a watercolour drawing by Jules LeJeune, artist with Duperrey during his 1824 visit to the Bay of Islands. The original drawing has the same number of people aboard, but differently arranged. The details of the canoe are quite different. There are many more buildings shown at Kahouwera Pa in the original than in the copy. The original drawing is in the Bibliotheque du Service Historique de la Marine, Vincennes, Paris.
