Portrait of Queen Elizabeth II has the date of the Treaty of Waitangi in gold in the background. A well-known (and occasionally controversial) print. Commonly referred to as “the Queen with a Moko”. For me, this is a positive expression of the blending of two cultures. It caused quite an uproar upon the release of reproductions in 2009.
