EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the momentous departure of Sir Hercules Robinson, the newly appointed Governor of New Zealand, from Port Jackson in New South Wales. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a significant historical event. Sir Hercules Robinson's arrival as Governor marked a turning point for both New Zealand and its relationship with Australia. As he sets sail on his journey across the Tasman Sea, one can only imagine the anticipation and excitement that filled the air. The scene depicted is brimming with maritime charm and topographical beauty. The bustling port of Port Jackson serves as a picturesque backdrop to this grand occasion. Ships dotting the harbor, their sails billowing in the wind, create a sense of movement and adventure. This image not only commemorates Sir Hercules Robinson's appointment but also symbolizes unity among nations within Oceania. It highlights how closely connected Australia and New Zealand were during this era. The presence of Australians from various regions - South Australia, West Australian - further emphasizes this shared heritage. Their presence signifies support for Sir Hercules Robinson as he embarks on his new role in governing New Zealand. As we gaze upon this remarkable engraving today, it allows us to step back in time and appreciate both the artistic skill involved in its creation and its historical significance. This print truly encapsulates an important moment in colonial history while offering glimpses into life at sea during that period.
