The photo looks strangely modern for the 1880s. It was the Burton (not Durton) Bros in Dunedin - "During the 1880s Alfred [Burton] travelled extensively through the South Pacific, photographing scenes of village life in Samoa, Fiji, and Tonga." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burton_Brothers

beachcomber australia I agree BC, I thought it looked rather modern for the rest of the images, but Burton's travelling dates match the rest of the album, cheers :)

I wonder if this is the Messageries Maritimes Steamer LE SYDNEY (1882). Trouble is there were seven identical sister ships! - MELBOURNE, CALEDONIEN, SALAZIE, OCEANIEN, YARRA, and NATAL. Hmmm! www.messageries-maritimes.org/sydney.htm ; www.messageries-maritimes.org/avant18.htm
