Reed [Published date: 1980].[From front jacket flap] IN 1769 Coo k's Endeavour was off Tolaga Bay on the east coast of New Zealand's North Island .Here Sydney Parkinson, an English painter engaged by Banks to record botanical discoveries, made a pen-and-wash study of A Perforated Rock.This work is the sta rting-point of Gil Docking's zoo-year survey of New Zealand painting, which conc ludes with Brent Wong's Abandoned Settlement (1969), a title that is itself a si lent commentary on the two centuries that separate it from Parkinson's sketch.Gi l Docking, Director of the Auckland City Art Gallery, divides his subject into f our main periods beginning with that of Exploration, during which British and Fr ench painters of varying degrees of ability recorded what they saw during brief visits.The Settlement period follows, beginning withAugustus Earle (1793-1838) a nd ending with J.B. C. Hoyte (1835-1913), during which NewZealand's leading pain ters were, to a man, European-born and seeing the country as a new and quite unf amiliar land.The period of Transition covers the 1870s to the 1920s, and the aut hor opens it with W. M.Hodgkins (1855-98), who arrived in Dunedin from England v ia Australia in 1860. This, the formative era of New Zealand painting, ends with a study of A. W. Walsh (1859-1916), and includes the first generation of New Ze aland painters to be born and brought up in the country. The fourth period is de scribed under the head of New Impulses; it begins with Lots White (b. 1903) an d takes the reader up to 1969. Throughout, Mr Docking has selected the illustrat ions to complement his narrative, so that they are not merely an assemblage of p eriod works but are integrated with his text. The result is an illustrated study.…
