Tuhia he haere tonu mo tenei pene - Ko Pierre (pe Pietro) Mezzara ano hoki he kaiwhakairo, engari i neke ki te United States, akene na te Gold Rush o California. I noho ia ki San Francisco, a i mohiotia mo tana mahi hei kaitarai cameo. I hangaia e ia te whakapakoko whakamaharatanga tuatahi o Aperahama Lincoln. I whakatapua (i roto i te plaster) i San Francisco i te tau 1866, ka whakangaromia (i roto i te parahi) e te ruu o San Francisco o 1906
He aha? I uru a Pietro Mezzara ki te Uniana Toi o California me te San Francisco Art Association, a i awhina ia ki te whakatu i te Kura Hoahoa o San Francisco.
