Description

Shows a view of Poukawa Lake in Central Hawkes Bay, set amongst hills. Two Maori are walking on the road, away from the viewer. One is a man wearing a Maori cloak and a white European hat; the other, a woman with a small child wrapped to her back in a blanket. The scene looks out from the dense bush of Te Aute Road across Lake Poukawa, towards the Kaokaoroa range of hills. Smoke from a fire can be seen beyond the shore opposite

A visual likeness to the chromolithograph (PUBL-0016-22) - the Maori man wearing the European hat and the woman carrying the child in a blanket on her back feature in both, and the setting is almost identical
