Nineteenth Century New Zealand Artists: A Guide & Handbook

SHAW, George B

SHAW, George B.

Artist and engraver, arrived in Dunedin on the Titan January 1851. In November 1851 showed publicly a watercolour drawing of Dunedin from which he would make a lithograph, but there did not appear to be enough subscribers and the lithograph was not executed. Perhaps it was at the same time that he made a carefully executed drawing of Port Chalmers also intended to be lithographed. Was listed as Christchurch artist 1866–67; a Mrs G. B. Shaw listed a milliner there was probably his wife: a G. Shaw exhibited with OAS 1880–87. The watercolour of Dunedin is now in Hocken; also represented McDougall.
