Zealandia (personification)

The Fallen Soldiers’ Memorial in Palmerston depicting Zealandia pointing heavenward, was unveiled in 1903.[1]

Zealandia is a national personification of New Zealand. In her stereotypical form, Zealandia appears as an evidently Western European woman who is similar in dress and appearance to Britannia. Britannia is said to be the mother of Zealandia.[2]
