Indecision: An Arawa Child ; Charles. F. Goldie; ; 2024.002

Shared by
New Zealand Portrait Gallery Te Pūkenga Whakaata

This portrait is from the latter part of C.F. Goldie's career - distinctive for its warmer palette and thinner application of paint. Many of these works are based on earlier paintings, sketches or photographs of models he had painted decades earlier. It is possible that the sitter is Hamiora Haupapa (Ngati Whakaue). Goldie met Hamiora during a trip to Rotorua in 1901 when he met a number of Te Arawa models. He painted Hamiora several times including Hamiora 1901 which is in the collection of The Suter Art Gallery Te Aratoi o Whakatū.
