This is not paleoart; the larger moa species likely only became extinct sometime in the 15th century.

There are two heliographs visible - one towards the front, and one further back. I think this is one panel of a stereograph - the sterograph is here at the National Galleries of Scotland:

It is very hard to tell from this photo, but I think the angle between the heliograph rear rod and the mirror is too large for the heliograph to be the British Mance pattern (right example in image below), and is rather than India pattern (left example in image below), as one might expect from Indian troops in WWI.
