The focal point is a beautifully carved wooden figure, known as a poupou, standing proudly outside in the Whakarewarewa thermal and cultural area in Rotorua, New Zealand. The intricate details of this sculpture showcase the skill and artistry of Maori wood carving. Set against a backdrop of clear blue skies, the vibrant colors of the figure's traditional attire come to life. Its vertical position adds grandeur to its presence, resembling a pillar that symbolizes heritage and history. This contemporary masterpiece stands tall amidst lush green grass, harmoniously blending with nature. The photograph not only showcases the physical beauty of this wooden structure but also invites viewers to appreciate its cultural significance. It serves as a reminder of New Zealand's rich indigenous heritage and their deep connection with nature. Through Robert Francis' lens, we are transported into an enchanting world where ancient customs meet modern architecture. This image encapsulates both travel enthusiasts' desire for exploration and those seeking to immerse themselves in different cultures. Without mentioning commercial use or any specific company associated with it, this print by Robert Harding offers an opportunity for individuals to bring home a piece of Maori culture while adding an artistic touch to their living spaces.
