Berry & Co worked out of a purpose-built studio at 147 Cuba Street, which opened in 1900. This photograph is one of approximately 3000 images that were discovered by chance in the early 1990s, when a tenant in the building found them in a cupboard and offered them to Te Papa. Photographic gelatin, silver, sheet glass, photographic plates. ? Purchased 1998 with New Zealand Lottery Grants Board funds. |
