EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a significant moment in the history of Belfast and Northern Ireland as the statue of the late Earl of Belfast is inaugurated in College Square during the visit of the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. The Earl of Belfast, whose real name was Arthur Chichester, was a prominent figure in Ulster politics and society during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He served as the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland from 1888 to 1892 and played a crucial role in the establishment of Queen's University Belfast.

The occasion was a testament to the Earl's enduring legacy and the respect he commanded in Belfast and beyond. This engraving offers a glimpse into the past, providing a visual record of an important moment in the history of Belfast and Northern Ireland.
