Charles Decimus Barraud was a New Zealand pharmacist and artist who emigrated to New Zealand in 1849.


This print of Mount Alford with Mount Taylor to the left and Mount Hutt to the right is looking from a cattle farm on the Canterbury plains.  Mount Alford is an easy drive from Christchurch and a popular weekend hike.  This plate is taken from a twentieth century re-print of Barraud's "Graphic & Descriptive" which was originally published in 1877. This attractive early view of Mount Alford,  along with other regional NZ views has been extracted from the 1960 edition of Barraud’s “New Zealand: Graphic and Descriptive”.
