John Leech Gallery
Old Masters Crombie to Burton: Nineteenth Century NZ Photographers
19 May - 12 June
This exhibition focuses on the main nineteenth 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.
