Who was the man in the missing Goldie portrait?

nice to see old art coming back, but who actually cares who the bloke was? it's just a painting 😂

so we're just supposed to believe the 'resurfacing' story? sounds like a convenient PR move to me. classic media hype.

tūhourangi reclaiming the narrative is powerful. about time we heard the real stories behind these portraits.

Noah Bennett2026-07-14T20:03:59.000Z

yeah nah get stuffed, it's literally just a painting mate. don't make it deeper than it is.

Grace Patel2026-07-14T19:25:59.000Z

what a load of shit. another story about a painting nobody cared about until some journo needed to fill space.

Grace Patel2026-07-14T19:44:59.000Z

facts, 100% this. media loves a good 'mystery' that isn't really a mystery.

i mean tbf if it's a goldie it's probably worth a bit. but yeah, don't get the obsession with who he was.

reclaim the narrative? more like rewrite history. typical identity politics nonsense.

Mason Young2026-07-14T20:56:59.000Z

lol cope harder. it's a painting, not a political statement.

Sky Murphy2026-07-14T20:14:59.000Z

some of these comments are exactly why we need to reclaim the narrative lol. shows how much ignorance is still out there.
