"This book is the outcome of a partnership between artist Gottfried Lindauer and Patron H.E. Partridge which continued for over half a century and produced more than 100 paintings, including a collection which has become part of the heritage of the Maori race and of New Zealand-- the Partridge Collection of Maori Lindauer Paintings. This book reproduces 48 of the 70 paintings in the Partridge Collection, in full colour, and records in faithful and picturesque detail many of the distinguished figures of a Maori era that is past. Several of Lindauer's colourful scenes of Maori village life and customs are also included. This book is sponsored by Mrs E.L. Clayton, a daughter of Mr H.E. Partridge, and the royalties earned are to be paid to the Maori Education Foundation"--Dust jacket.
