This print titled "Appointment of Agent at Antigua, 1911, (1928)" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image showcases an antique document from the early 20th century, highlighting the meticulous artistry of calligraphy in English text. Published by Macmillan and Company Limited in London in 1928 as part of "A History of Lloyd's" by Charles Wright and C. Ernest Fayle, this print offers a glimpse into the world of insurance during that time. The close-up shot allows us to appreciate the intricate lettering done with ink on this certificate. With its elegant lower case Western script, it reflects both the profession and occupation associated with being an agent for Lloyds of London - one of Britain's most renowned insurance companies. As we delve into this piece, we are transported to Antigua and Barbuda where this appointment took place. The document itself serves as a testament to the significance placed on formalities during that era.
