"The exhibition also provides an opportunity to reflect on the role of the monarch and the sovereign's representative in New Zealand. The beautiful catalogue produced by Erin Griffey contains important essays on how portraits of the sovereign were acquired for New Zealand, explanations of the Government House collections, and a biography of Lord Norrie by Mr O'Shea. That is in addition to the illustrated catalogue of the paintings and other works. Sir Willoughby Norrie's generous gift of British royal portraits is the backbone of the exhibition. But the catalogue refers also to the generosity to New Zealand of successive Governor's general. And also to their sense of fun and lack of pretension, demonstrated in the cartoons and other modern works."--NZ Portrait Gallery website.
