EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Thomas Townshend, 1st Viscount Sydney, a prominent British politician of the late 18th century. The artist, W Macleod, skillfully captures the essence of this influential statesman who held various significant cabinet positions throughout his illustrious career. Viscount Sydney played a pivotal role in shaping the history of Australia as we know it today. His decision to appoint Arthur Phillip as Governor of the first British colony in Australia led to the founding of what would become one of its most iconic cities - Sydney. This wood engraving from Picturesque Atlas of Australasia provides us with a glimpse into the life and legacy of this remarkable man. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of elegance and timelessness to this portrait. It allows us to focus on Townshend's distinguished features and contemplate his contributions to politics and governance during a transformative era for both Britain and its colonies.

Through Andrew Garran's skilled illustration under Frederic B Schell's supervision, we are transported back in time to witness an important figure who helped shape nations across continents. This print serves as a testament to Thomas Townshend's enduring influence on history while reminding us that even seemingly small decisions can leave an indelible mark on future generations.
