Looking Backward - Wiripine Ninia, a Ngatiawa Chieftainess
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating portrait captured by New Zealand artist Charles Frederick Goldie in 1917. This oil painting on canvas laid down on board measures 22.8 x 17.8cm and depicts the wise and dignified face of an indigenous elder. The chieftainess, adorned in traditional costume and feathered headdress, exudes wisdom and strength through her intense gaze and weathered features. The artist skillfully captures every wrinkle and line on her face, symbolizing a lifetime of experiences and knowledge. In this artwork, Goldie pays homage to the rich cultural heritage of the Ngatiawa people while also highlighting the beauty of old age. The chieftainess's white hair serves as a testament to her wisdom and resilience. Through his meticulous attention to detail, Goldie invites viewers to reflect upon the importance of preserving indigenous traditions and honoring our elders' contributions to society. This painting serves as a reminder that there is much wisdom to be gained from looking backward into history. With its profound expression, "Looking Backward - Wiripine Ninia" stands as both a work of fine art and a tribute to indigenous culture. It reminds us that true intelligence transcends time, clothing us with respect for those who came before us.
