EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the distinguished visage of Donald Alexander Smith, 1st Baron Strathcona and Mount Royal, a Scottish-born Canadian fur trader, financier, and politician. Born in Scotland in 1820, Smith's impressive career began in the fur trade, where he rose to become a prominent figure in the Hudson's Bay Company. His business acumen extended beyond the fur trade, and he became a successful financier and investor, playing a significant role in the development of the Canadian Pacific Railway. Smith's political career was equally noteworthy, and he served as the Premier of Manitoba and as a member of the Canadian House of Commons. He was also instrumental in the creation of the city of Winnipeg and played a key role in the annexation of Rupert's Land to Canada. In this image, Smith is depicted in formal attire, with a white beard and a hand in his pocket, exuding an air of confidence and authority. The photograph is a testament to the remarkable life and accomplishments of this Scottish-Canadian pioneer, who left an indelible mark on Canadian history. Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal, as he came to be known, passed away in 1914, leaving behind a legacy that continues to be celebrated in Canadian history. This photograph is a rare and valuable glimpse into the life of a man who helped shape the course of Canadian history.
