Don Binney is renowned for his landscapes and for his birds. Kereru is what we hope to see in the best Binneys; as such it is almost a study in Binney. Don Binney was born of the era of examination that was the 1960s in New Zealand, when New Zealanders, and by extension New Zealand artists, were discovering what they thought New Zealand was and how it looked. In Binney’s own words, he felt ‘participant to an emerging national identity’ (Skinner, 6). Binney’s paintings display an oft-cited continuation of the Rita Angus hard white New Zealand light and bold edges, which he shared with artists like Michael Smither and Robin White. This association places him at the crux of modern New Zealand painting: a bridge between the early regionalists and contemporary masters. While Binney is particularly recognized as a landscape painter with the addition of birds, Kereru’s unique zoomed in focus on the kereru in flight directs attention to an avian motif that has become his trademark. The bird dominates the composition, and is framed by, rather than placed in, a landscape. What little land that is depicted has been abstracted into an undulating curve that echoes the curves of the bird’s own form. This relationship of structure is a perfect depiction of Binney’s chief concern of symbiosis between animal and environment. Binney’s particular brand of painterly application allows duplicity of viewing, so that what you see is simultaneously so literally paint while also so literally a landscape, a bird. In Keruru, though the bird dominates focus, there is no recession of colour; the sky and land and bird seem to exist on the same plane. The landscape lacks particularity, but then so does the bird, and this lack of particularity serves to make land, sea, and bird iconic. Amy Stewart

City Art Gallery (Wellington 1994), p. 107, fig. 35 (colour illustration), p. 9.

In a note for the Dowse Art Gallery survey of 1979, Fomison commented, ‘I was born premature, that little body all covered with hair.’ Other works memorialize Fomison’s sense of himself as marked from birth, for example “I was a Teenage Werewolf “ film 1957, 1970, which was painted as a gift to Philip Clairmont, who declined it. The hairy werewolf can be traced to a book in Fomison’s library (Denis Gifford, A Pictorial History of Horror Movies, London, Hamlyn 1973). Depicting himself as infected with lyanthropy, ‘the curse that brings out the beast in people’, Fomison represents himself among images derived from horror movies, underground comics, medical texts, and photographs of the diseased, aged, or insane, as well as of contestants in gurning or facepulling competitions.

A World Heritage Site., the Park is notable for the discovery. of the remains of the Mungo Man and Lady, the oldest known human remains to have been ritually cremated,. Both were buried on the shore of Lake Mungo, beneath the ‘Walls of China’, a series of lunettes on the South eastern edge of the lake. Hotere visited the region in 1982 on the Senior Anzac Fellowship. He was fascinated with both the site and also the Australian government’s support and respect for the region. The gridded formation of the work and marked holes/pegs clearly relate to the archaeological history of the area.

26 Theodore Jacques Ralli (Greek, 1852-1909) The Mandolin Player, Cairo oil on canvas signed and dated ‘Ralli 81’ (lower left); inscribed to original paper label affixed to stretcher ‘No. 2….Cairo”/by Ral…Paris/at Messrs Ralli of…/ Fenwick Chambers Liverpool’ 41 x 31.5cm $35,000 - 45,000 PROVENANCE Thought to have been purchased George Walker Auction House, Auckland c1940 by the current vendor’s mother for the sum of 5 pounds Collection of W Teutenberg, Auckland, a direct descendant of the master engraver Anton Teutenberg

Théodore-Jacques Ralli was the most important Greek artist of the 19th century to work in the Academic tradition. His particular form of academic realism was honed under the tutelage of great French Orientalist painter Jean-Léon Gérôme and Jean-Jules-Antoine Lecomte du Nouy at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris both of whom he studied under until 1880. Exhibiting regularly at The Salon from 1875, he also showed at the Royal Academy in London from 1879. Ralli’s work clearly shows the influence of his tutor Gérôme, namely in the naturalistic rendering of his idealised subject and the precisely captured details, whilst also illustrating an appreciation for the achievements of 17th century Dutch realists, namely in the organisation of pictorial space. While many of his European contemporaries working in the Orientalist genre created images drawn from second-hand sources and their own imaginations, Ralli was intimately familiar with the culture, architecture and decoration of North Africa and the Middle East and his works display the breadth of his knowledge. While primarily based in France, and later acquiring French nationality, Ralli spent his winters in his Cairo studio from the mid 1880s until 1904, where the present work was painted. The artist also travelled extensively in Greece, the Middle East and North Africa finding further inspiration for the romantic mysticism and suggestive sensuality for his oriental paintings. The present work shows Ralli at the apex of his powers in his depictions of Orientalist subjects. The full glory of Ralli’s discerning eye for detail is evident including the vibrant colours, rich and varied textures and quality of shadow and light. There is an underlying sensuality with the direct glaze of the seated beauty confronting the viewer, mesmerizing our attention. Not only ethnographically accurate, the work is depicted with great skill, producing a refined and seductive work of art.

Falconer Larkworthy spent only a few years in New Zealand but was a significant figure in the country’s economic development. Born 22 March 1833, Weymouth, Dorset, England, he was the son of Ambrose Larkworthy and his wife, Amelia Cooke. Falconer was first married 29 December 1857, Melbourne to Mary Agnes Balston. The marriage produced one son but ended with the mother’s death in childbirth in 1860. On 9 April 1863, he married Elizabeth Anne Clover in London. This second marriage produced two sons and four daughters.

Leaving New Zealand mid 1862, most of Larkworthy’s career in New Zealand banking was spent in London. He was well respected in the London financial community, being recruited to the board of directors of the Commercial Union Assurance Company Limited in 1863. In 1888 he resigned his position with the Bank of New Zealand following a restructuring of the directorate, but continued as managing director of the loan company.

Falconer Larkworthy joined a London firm of merchants trading with India at the tender age of 16, from where he moved to the Oriental Bank Corporation. He was posted to Mauritius and after a period in Cape Town, to Australia. In 1860 he was promoted to manage the Oriental Bank’s branch in Auckland. Larkworthy had not been long in Auckland when the Oriental Bank decided to withdraw from New Zealand. At the same time, some colonists were dissatisfied that all bank profits were going to overseas corporations and as a result the Bank of New South Wales took over much of the business of the Oriental Bank and the Bank of New Zealand was founded. in 1861 Larkworthy agreed to join the Bank of New Zealand as its London manager. However significant gold discoveries in Otago, May 1861 convinced Larkworthy to defer his departure, using his Australian experience to help the Bank of New Zealand compete for banking business in the goldfields.

Larkworthy visited New Zealand in 1880 to sell an estate which was causing him financial difficulties. In 1881 he published a book, New Zealand Revisited, in which he prophesied a rosy economic future for the colony. He visited again briefly in 1888–89.
