He ngahere kauri, te awa o Wairoa 1838, nā Charles Heaphy. I tino paingia ngā rākau kani whakamīharo o Aotearoa e ngā tāngata o Peretānia me Ahitereiria. I tīmataria ētahi whakahaere mahi kōtui, he Māori he Pākehā e mahi tahi ana, hei tuku rākau ki tāwāhi. I tīmata hoki te hanga poti ki konei. Kei tēnei whakaahua peita e nekehia ana ētahi kauri ki te taura, i mua i te rua kani rākau. Arā ētahi kauri tiketike whāwhe noa i ngā tumu, me ētahi whare kaikani e rua.
Kauri forest, Wairoa River 1838 by Charles Heaphy. New Zealand’s high-quality timber was sought after in Britain and Australia. Māori and Pākehā set up joint ventures to export it. Boat-building started here, too. This painting shows kauri being moved by ropes in front of the saw-pit. There are tall kauri surrounding stumps and two millers' huts.
