Portrait of Rose Grainger in New Zealand. She is facing the camera and is wearing a large round brim hat with feathers and a v neck dress. Rose Grainger is captured here wearing a quintessential Edwardian hat. The photographer, May Moore (1881-1931), was one of the few very successful female photographers working in the antipodes at the time. This image was most likely taken in Wellington, New Zealand, in 1908 when Rose accompanied Percy on his second tour to outposts of the British colonial empire with Australian contralto Ada Crossley and her concert party.
