EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "Three New Colonial Governors" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the world of politics and power. This historical print showcases three distinguished figures who were appointed as colonial governors during that era. The image portrays Colonel Gerard Smith, Lord Lamington, and Sir Herbert H Murray in their official attire. Each governor represents a different region - Newfoundland, Western Australia, and Queensland respectively. Their stern expressions reflect the weight of responsibility they carried as leaders in their respective colonies. This engraving was originally published in The Illustrated London News on October 5th, 1895. It provides an invaluable visual record of the time when British influence extended across vast territories around the globe. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of the significant role these men played in shaping colonial policies and governance. They symbolize an era marked by exploration, expansion, and political maneuvering. With its intricate details and rich historical context, this print serves as a window into a bygone era. It allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such engravings and the importance of understanding our past to comprehend our present-day society better.
