Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Te Wainokenoke (seated), to the left of Nohorua (with full moko and a grey beard). Behind the couple is Nohorua's son, Tuarau, standing wrapped in a blanket, ca 1844.
Painting by George Francis Angas who records that the group is depicted 'in a potato ground, or clearing at Kahotea, between Takapuwahia and Titahi Bay - Porirua; in the distance is a cooking shed, thatched with nikau leaves. The chief is seated by the trunk of a tree-fern, and the bird [near the supplejack] is ... the fan-tailed fly catcher. E Wai, was recovering from an illness at the time of my visit, and had therefore been placed under a tapu so strict, that every spot of ground whereon she sat was rendered sacred for a certain number of days; one of these tapued places is represented ... fenced around with twigs that its sanctity may not be infringed upon.' |
