Rare original antique engraving print from an 1860s illustrated journal. This antique print depicts a view of the town of Wanganui, New Zealand from across the river. Above and beneath the picture is an article of the Maori War in New Zealand.

Whanganui, also spelled Wanganui, is on the west coast of the North Island of New Zealand. The Whanganui River, New Zealand's longest navigable waterway, runs from Mount Tongariro to the sea. Whanganui is part of the Manawatu-Wanganui region. Whanganui is the ancestral home of Te Ati Haunui-a-Paparangi and other Whanganui Maori Maori tribes.

The print is very large (folio size), measuring approximately 11 x 15 inches (28 x 38 cm). The picture fills most of it, measuring about 13.5 x 6 inches, with a caption below it.

The page is in excellent condition for its age. There is text/photos on the back of the print. See scan for an accurate view of the condition.

This print will come with a Certificate of Authenticity.
