EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in the late 19th century, showcasing Mr Chamberlain and his Chief Assistants at the Colonial Office alongside the Colonial Premiers. Taken by an English photographer, this image provides a glimpse into the political landscape of that time. The composition features a group of distinguished politicians from various colonies including West Australia, South Australia, New Zealand, Newfoundland, Cape Colony, Tasmania, Victoria, Canada, New South Wales, Natal and Queensland. Among them are notable figures such as Sir W Whiteway, Sir J Gordon Sprigg, Sir John Forrest and Harry Escombe. The photograph highlights the importance of colonial affairs during this period as these leaders gather together to discuss matters concerning their respective regions. The presence of Mr Chamberlain adds significance to the scene as he held the position of Secretary of State for the Colonies at that time. With its detailed depiction and historical context provided by The Graphic publication on July 3rd in 1897; this print offers viewers a unique opportunity to delve into an era when colonialism played a crucial role in shaping global politics.
