EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dignified presence of Lord Melbourne, a prominent British statesman from the 19th century. Created by W Macleod in 1886, this wood engraving showcases the refined features and commanding aura of William Lamb, 2nd Viscount Melbourne. Serving as Prime Minister during two separate terms between 1834 and 1841, Lord Melbourne played a significant role in shaping British politics during the Victorian era. Beyond his political achievements, Lord Melbourne also held a special place in history as a mentor to Queen Victoria. His guidance and influence on the young monarch left an indelible mark on her reign. In fact, one of his most enduring legacies is none other than the city of Melbourne itself. Named after him in 1837, this Australian metropolis stands as a testament to his contributions. The wood engraving featured here comes from Picturesque Atlas of Australasia, Vol I - an illustrious publication illustrated under Frederic B Schell's supervision and authored by Andrew Garran. This portrait immortalizes Lord Melbourne's image for generations to come. With its monochrome aesthetic and intricate details meticulously etched into wood, this print serves as both a historical artifact and artistic masterpiece. As we gaze upon this remarkable portrayal of Lord Melbourne's countenance, we are reminded not only of his political prowess but also his lasting impact on society at large.
