About the Item

Antique print titled 'To Ngaporutu - Ngawhea, of the Mahoa'. Lithograph of To Ngaporutu and his wife Rihe at Wakatumutu; Ngawhea of Te Mahoa, a chief of the Ngatimaniapoto tribe and Nga Miho wife of Rangituataea. This print originates from 'The New Zealanders Illustrated' by George French Angas. The lithograph titled 'To Ngaporutu - Ngawhea, of the Mahoa' encapsulates a poignant moment frozen in time, extracted from the vibrant pages of 'The New Zealanders Illustrated' by George French Angas. Within this exquisite antique print, a captivating scene unfolds, revealing the dignified presence of two couples amid the serene setting of Wakatumutu. At the forefront is To Ngaporutu, a figure exuding regal stature and noble demeanor, alongside his wife Rihe. Clad in traditional attire, their countenances reflect both pride and wisdom, portraying the esteemed position they hold within their community. To Ngaporutu emanates a quiet authority, while Rihe exudes grace and strength, her gaze hinting at a depth of character and resilience. Adjacent to this central duo, the lithograph introduces Ngawhea of Te Mahoa, a prominent chief from the Ngatimaniapoto tribe. His presence commands attention, his visage bearing the marks of leadership and history. Accompanying him is Nga Miho, wife of Rangituataea, radiating a quiet strength and elegance that complements the dignity of her partner. The backdrop of Wakatumutu, captured with remarkable detail and sensitivity, provides a picturesque context for this portrayal of indigenous life. Lush foliage and serene surroundings contribute to the overall tranquility of the scene, emphasizing the cultural richness and deep-rooted traditions of the subjects depicted. Through George French Angas's skilled artistry, this lithograph not only presents a visual feast but also serves as a valuable historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the lives, traditions, and esteemed figures of the Maori people in an era long past. Its preservation stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of these individuals and their contributions to the cultural tapestry of New Zealand.
