EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from the 19th century takes us back to a significant event in history - the Colonial and Indian Exhibition held in New Zealand. The image, part of a private collection, offers a glimpse into this grand exhibition that took place in London. The scene depicted showcases a general view of one of the exhibition courts, where colonial and indigenous cultures intertwine. The court is adorned with timber trophies and gold trophies, symbolizing the wealth and resources brought by colonization. Amongst these treasures stands an intriguing skeleton, perhaps representing both curiosity for natural history as well as the impact of colonialism on local fauna. One cannot help but be drawn to the exhibitions' focal point - an imposing moa skeleton. This extinct bird species native to New Zealand serves as a poignant reminder of how colonization has forever altered ecosystems and led to irreversible extinctions. Through this engraving, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the complex dynamics between colonizers and indigenous peoples during this era. It invites contemplation on themes such as cultural exchange, exploitation, power imbalances, and their lasting effects. As we reflect upon this historical moment captured by English School artists over a century ago, it serves as a reminder that art can provide valuable insights into our past while encouraging dialogue about our present realities.
