"Portrait of a Maori Woman in Colonial Dress" is a notable painting by Bohemian-born New Zealand artist Gottfried Lindauer, who is renowned for his portraits of Māori people. Painted in the late 19th century, this work is part of Lindauer's extensive oeuvre that captures the cultural intersection and the complex dynamics of identity during the colonial period in New Zealand.

The painting depicts a Māori woman dressed in the European fashion of the time, which reflects the cultural assimilation and the influence of European settlers on the indigenous population. The subject's attire and accessories, including a hat and a high-collared dress, contrast with her traditional Māori facial moko (tattoo), creating a visual representation of the blending of Māori and European cultures.

Lindauer's meticulous technique and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects have made his portraits valuable both as works of art and as historical records. "Portrait of a Maori Woman in Colonial Dress" is particularly significant as it embodies the personal and societal changes that Māori individuals experienced during the colonial era. The painting is not only a testament to Lindauer's skill as a portraitist but also serves as an important document of the cultural shifts and the identity negotiations that were occurring in New Zealand society at the time.

The painting is held in high regard for its historical and cultural significance, as well as for its artistic merit. It is one of many portraits by Lindauer that contribute to the understanding of New Zealand's colonial history and the experiences of its indigenous people. As with many of Lindauer's works, this portrait is likely to be part of public or private collections and may be on display in art galleries or museums that focus on New Zealand art or the representation of indigenous peoples.
