More about this artwork

Explore a detailed snapshot of 19th-century New Zealand life in "Maori-Dorf am Fluss Mangatawhiri, Auckland (Neuseeland)" (1858), masterfully sketched by the Austrian artist Joseph Selleny. This evocative work skillfully portrays a Maori village situated along the Mangatawhiri River, offering a rich glimpse into the indigenous community and their daily interactions.In the painting, various figures are delicately illustrated, engaged in traditional activities that illustrate the communal and familial aspects of Maori life. Some are seen conversing or preparing food, while others tend to children, echoing the social and cooperative spirit of the village. The landscape surrounding the village features prominently, with scattered homes constructed from natural materials, seamlessly integrating the community into the lush, expansive environment.The free-handed style of Selleny’s drawing, marked by fluid lines and subtle hints of color, captures the serene yet vibrant atmosphere of the place and its people. This scene not only reflects Selleny’s attention to detail and his appreciation for Maori culture but also serves as a valuable historical document, preserving the everyday reality of a world that has witnessed significant transformation over the centuries.
