At Rotorua (painting (visual work); Girolamo Pieri Nerli (Italian painter, born 1860, died 1923 ...; ca. 1897; Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa (Wellington, Welling...; 1936-0012-174)

Note: Nerli made only a brief visit to Rotorua, en route to Auckland, but, judging by several sketches of the area that he exhibited at the Auckland Society of Arts in 1897, he made good use of his time there. "At Rotorua," probably painted outdoors, avoids recognisable tourist landmarks in favour of a nondescript thermal area with a hot bathing pool, steam vents and a hint of native scrub. From these Nerli made a small gem of a painting full of shimmering light, steam and moisture. (Michael Dunn, 2009)
