An early portrait by renowned artist Charles Frederick Goldie is expected to raise up to $200,000 for developing world charities when it is auctioned at Art+Object, Auckland, on Thursday.
The 1915 painting of Ngati Tuwharetoa chieftainess Tamaiti Tukino is being sold by an anonymous vendor who has owned it for about 20 years.
