Behind the brush. Series 1, Episode 2
Description
They are some of the most fascinating characters of our history, yet few know who they are. These are the stories of Māori painted by the artist Gottfried Lindauer. Over seven episodes, the personal stories of the twenty-one tūpuna are presented with startling honesty by their descendants. - The wife who dished up a lethal lesson, the chief with cutting lofic, the brother of peace, and the painter who fled to Aotearoa reveal outrageous moments of history. The paintings in this episode are the portraits of Rangi Topeora, Te Hapuku & Eruera Maihi Patuone.
