Te mahi a te tohunga tā moko

Gottfried Lindauer. The Tohunga-ta-moko at Work, oil painting.

I tāia tēnei pikitia e Lindauer i te tau 1915, e whakaatu ana i te rangatira o Ngāti Maniapoto e tāia ana e te uhi ki te moko. E mau ana te tohungamoko i te uhi ki tōna ringa mauī, ā, kua toua e ia te mata ki te waingārahu. E tākaia ana tōna matimati ki te rito o te harakeke hei ūkui i te toto. Kei tētahi atu ringa ko tōna māhoe.
