Wynyard died in 1861 The text reproduced reads: "We who stand in this country occupy an historical position of extraordinary interest. Before us, lies a future already brilliant with the light of glorious morn. Behind us, lies a night of fearful gloom, unilluminated by the light of written records, of picture memorials, of aught which can give a certain idea of the past. A few stray streaks of light in the form of tradition, of oral poetry, of carved records, are the only guides we have" Attribution to George Henry Wynyard on the basis of the initials, and the fact that the Wynyard family and Grey were closely acquainted Other Titles - New Zealand Society September 26 Quantity: 1 drawing(s).
