An albumen print portrait of Ana Rupene and her child.

The photograph was closely copied by the artist Gottfried Lindauer (1839-1926) for one of the series of portraits he produced showing prominent Maori chiefs and their wives, accurately recording their facial tattoos, clothing, ornaments and weapons.

Photographer unidentified.

The print measures 5.7” by 3.9” (145 mm by 99 mm); it has been neatly skimmed off the album page on which it was once mounted.
