Between 1772 and 1775 artist William Hodges accompanied Captain Cook aboard the HMS Resolution on Cook’s second visit to New Zealand. At Dusky Sound, Hodges painted a Māori family in front of a cascading waterfall. His romantic picture of the new land has had a seminal effect on landscape painting and on generations of New Zealand artists including Colin McCahon, Mark Adams and Christine Hellyar.
