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. - War and peace, arranged marriages and keeping the faith paint a different picture in this season finale. The three paintings in this episode are portraits of Tokena Te Kerehi, Te Rangi Pikinga & Tamati Waka Nene.
