EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite presentation certificate, created by Garnet Walch in 1880, commemorates Queen Victoria's reign and the changing Australian landscape. The certificate was issued in conjunction with the Melbourne International Exhibition held between October 1880 and April 1881. The certificate features two vignettes of Queen Victoria, one depicting her in 1830, during her early reign, and the other from 1880, reflecting her long and distinguished rule. Surrounding the portraits, illustrations by Charles Turner showcase the transformation of the Australian landscape over the past five decades. In the earlier scene, kangaroos roam freely across the vast, untouched terrain, while in the later image, signs of European settlement are evident, with farms, homesteads, and infrastructure emerging against the backdrop of the natural beauty of the land. The certificate was published in Melbourne by George Robertson, and the book, adorned with Turner's illustrations, was produced to celebrate the Queen's jubilee and the progress of Australia during her reign. The Melbourne International Exhibition served as a platform to showcase the country's achievements and advancements, making this certificate a significant historical artifact that encapsulates the spirit of the 1880s in Australia.
