OriginalA portrait of Heeni Hirini and Her Daughter (1878) is an oil painting by Bohemian artist Gottfried Lindauer (1839 - 1926), known for his portraits of Maori people.
Reason
well-known image in New Zealand by an early portrait artist who specialised in portraits of Maori people. There is another version of this image which shows the cloak as white, however this one is more authentic (more similar to the colours of the actual painting).
