New Zealand Maori Group Traditional Whare Hut Hongi Greeting Vtg. Photo 19thC.
This quality reprint of a vintage photo shows a group of MÄori people are gathered outside a traditional whare (house), with two individuals in the foreground performing a hongi. The subjects wear a mix of traditional garments, such as feathered cloaks, and European-style clothing. The hongi is a sacred and traditional MÄori greeting in New Zealand, done by pressing noses and foreheads together, symbolizing the exchange of the breath of life. This image captures a moment of cultural practice and community life.
