New Zealand - Maori Chief Poster - The appeal of the image of a Māori chief was long recognised by early advertisers and achieved official recognition when the second Māori King, Tawhiao, was selected for inclusion on the New Zealand £1 note from 1934 to 1940. A decade later Topia Peehi Turoa, Chief of Ngati Patu-tokotoko was used to promote the country's tourism industry. Making imaginative use of a limited range of colours, this screenprinted poster is an impressive depiction of chiefly authority, marked by the pair of huia feathers in the hair, full moko (facial tattoo), pounamu (greenstone) ear pendants and korowai (feather cloak) over the left shoulder. The silhouettes of a meeting house, palisade and carved figure in the background add to the sense of mystery and mana (authority) commanded by this face of New Zealand.
Matariki is the Maori name for the group of stars also known as the Pleiades star cluster or The Seven Sisters which appears above the horizon in early June signifying the start of the Maori New Year.
