EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a view of a large, imposing building, draped in banners and lanterns, during Baroness Burdett-Coutts' Tour of the Colonies in the early 1900s. The Baroness, Angela Georgina Burdett-Coutts (1814-1906), is prominently featured in the scene, standing at the left side of the image, dressed in an elegant gown and hat, with a curious expression on her face as she takes in the sights. Born on April 21, 1814, and raised in a wealthy and influential family, Burdett-Coutts became a prominent philanthropist and socialite in Victorian England. In 1886, she embarked on a tour of the British colonies, visiting countries such as South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada, to observe firsthand the conditions of the British colonies and the welfare of their inhabitants. The building in the photograph is likely one of the many institutions or public structures that Burdett-Coutts visited during her tour. The banners and lanterns adorning the building suggest a celebration or commemoration of some kind, possibly in honor of the Baroness' visit. The image provides a fascinating glimpse into the grandeur and pageantry of colonial life during this period, as well as the dedication and curiosity of a remarkable woman who sought to make a difference in the world. The photograph is part of the Boswell collection, and dates from around 1900. It is a poignant reminder of a bygone era and a testament to the enduring legacy of Baroness Burdett-Coutts as a trailblazing philanthropist and intrepid traveler.
