Majoribanks Street, Mt Victoria, Pōneke.
(Street is pronounced “Marsh-banks” and was named after Stewart Marjoribanks (1774 – 1863), a wealthy wine merchant and ‘Whig’ M.P in the British House of Commons; who never visited New Zealand).
Pairing this year’s Okham Prize winner for Best Illustrated Non-Fiction, the extraordinary “Toi te Mana - an indigenous history of Māori art” with “65000 years - A Short History of Australian Art”.
