EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "At Chelsea Barracks for the Queens Jubilee, 1897" takes us back in time to a momentous occasion during Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee. The image showcases representatives from New Zealand, dressed in their traditional Maori attire, gathered at Chelsea Barracks in London. The subjects of the photograph are adorned with striking elements of Maori culture. Their intricate tag cloaks and korowai feathered capes add an air of regality to their presence. Each individual holds a unique item significant to their heritage - a hand club known as mere or patu, and a kotiate weapon. Their stoic expressions reflect both pride and respect for their indigenous roots while representing New Zealand on this grand international stage. This silver gelatin print by Stuart F. G. O. , measuring 28x21.5 cm, captures not only the physical beauty but also the cultural significance of these native New Zealanders. Preserved within a private collection, this historical artifact serves as a testament to the rich diversity that exists within our global community. As we gaze upon this remarkable image today, we are reminded of the power of photography to transport us through time and connect us with distant cultures and traditions that continue to shape our world today.
