The image captures a moment frozen in time, allowing us to appreciate the intricate details of this English School engraving. The topography of Adelaide is beautifully depicted, with its rolling hills and picturesque landscape serving as a backdrop to the bustling city. The focal point of the print is Government House, an iconic structure that has stood since 1837. Its grandeur and elegance are evident in every stroke of the artist's hand. As we delve into this historical masterpiece, it becomes clear that it was originally created for publication in The Illustrated London News on May 29th, 1886.
