McIntyre, Peter. (1975) Peter McIntyre’s Wellington. A.H & A.W Reed Ltd, Wellington.
Peter McIntyre first moved to Wellington when he married his wife, Patti. The city proved to be an excellent source of not only inspiration for the artist, but also a cultural haven for the artist. McIntyre wrote in his book Peter McIntyre’s New Zealand that he “liked it best just before darkness fell and the first light began to appear on the wharves across the harbour. And so I have painted it.”
