This exhibition focuses on the main 19th Century New Zealand photographers who traversed the country in difficult circumstances to document the landscape and the people within. Although many of these photographers are known, John Leech Gallery thinks they deserve greater recognition for their efforts and expertise in documenting early New Zealand.
