Samuel Coleridge Farr
1827 - 1918

Akaroa Harbour from above the township

We believe the first of these panoramas of Akaroa was painted some six years after Samuel Farr’s arrival in Akaroa in 1850. The second view was painted in 1889 and shows the development that had taken place over the intervening years, much of which was planned and designed by Farr.

Samuel Farr has a number of firsts against his name: the first marriage in Canterbury, he designed Akaroa’s first church, designed New Zealand’s first iron verandahs, and he started Sunday schools in Canterbury. As a leading member of the Acclimatisation Society, he stocked almost every lake and river in Canterbury with fish and was instrumental in introducing the bumblebee to New Zealand. There are examples of his work held by Turnbull Library, Akaroa Museum and the Fletcher Collection. Samuel Farr’s work is very rare and these are the first works by him known to be offered at auction.
