Description

A flat area beside the Waipa River, with bush-clad banks on either side. In the background the pink of massed peach blossom can be seen. In the middle distance are whare or tents, with smoke rising from cooking fires. A soldier on horseback is in the left foreground

While many of Hamley's watercolours are copied from those of his superior officer, E. A. Williams, this work may be his own
