Explore Cast in light: Life in a mining town
Joseph Divis (1885-1967) photographed NZ mining towns. This exhibition showcases images taken between 1931 and 1935 – the most productive period of his photographic career and Waiuta’s heyday.
This online exhibition was created to accompany the Cast in Light exhibition held at the Library from 12 March to 6 July 2024
