Descriptive Data

Archives IdentifierAM003Date Range1842-1990DescriptionThis is an artificial series created to bring together prints and small (often minor) works of art on paper given to Wellington City Council or Wellington City Archives over time. They all have the following characteristics: they are known or assumed to have been been donated to the Council, or their origin is unknown or can no longer be established. Some of the latter, for instance, may originally have come as part of The Early Settlers' and Historical Association of Wellington donations but insufficient documentation at the time means this can no longer be established. The other defining characteristic is that they were all just one or two isolated items forming no series on their own. Where donors are known for particular items, this information is recorded in the Acquisition and Provenance information relating to the item, rather than the series.Quantity (Linear Metres)1.2MediumFileSystem of ArrangementnoneCollection TypeWellington City Council
