Notes

Petrus der Velden came to New Zealand in 1890 and during the first eight years in New Zealand he proved to be a strong influence on a whole generation of Canterbury artists.

The Otira Gorge is a pass in the Southern Alps on the Christchurch to Greymouth road, this wild and rugged ravine was a favourite subject for van der Velden.
