EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases John George, Earl of Durham, a prominent figure in 19th-century British history. As an aristocrat and earl, he held significant positions as Governor General and high commissioner of British North America during the Victorian era. The engraving is taken from "The life and times of Queen Victoria" by Robert Wilson, published in 1900. In this portrait, we see a distinguished man with a commanding presence. His stern expression reflects his role as a leader in colonialism and governance. The monochrome aesthetic adds to the timeless quality of the image, transporting us back to the nineteenth century. John George's influence extended beyond his noble status; he played a crucial role in shaping British North America's political landscape during this period. This print serves as a visual testament to his power and authority. The creator of this artwork remains unknown but collaborated with Robert Wilson on capturing John George's likeness accurately. Preserved through time by The Print Collector, this historical artifact allows us to delve into the past and gain insight into one of Britain's influential figures.
