EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of John Young, 1st Baron Lisgar, Governor of New South Wales. The portrait, captured in 1886 by artist W Macleod, exudes an air of authority and sophistication. Lord Lisgar was a prominent figure in both British Empire and Australian history; he served as Governor of New South Wales from 1861 to 1867 before assuming the role of Governor General of Canada. The wood engraving featured here is part of the Picturesque Atlas of Australasia, Volume I, a comprehensive collection curated by Andrew Garran under the supervision of Frederic B Schell. This particular image offers a glimpse into the colonial era during the late nineteenth century when Britain's influence extended across vast territories. Lord Lisgar's stoic expression reflects his unwavering commitment to public service and governance. His tenure as Governor General in Canada further solidified his reputation as an esteemed statesman on an international scale. This historical print serves not only as a visual representation but also as a testament to Lord Lisgar's significant contributions to both Australia and Canada. It stands as a reminder that even amidst vast empires and changing landscapes, individuals like John Young can leave an indelible mark on history through their leadership and dedication to public service.
