EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed New Zealand Bishops from the 19th century. The engraving, created by an English School artist, beautifully captures the essence of these religious figures who played a significant role in shaping New Zealand's spiritual landscape. In this historic image, we see a distinguished group of clergy members adorned in their traditional vestments. Standing tall and proud, they represent various dioceses across New Zealand. Among them are notable figures such as Lord Bishop of Nelson and Lord Bishop of Wellington, along with Right Reverend W Williams and Right Reverend G A Selwyn. The solemn expressions on their faces reflect their dedication to serving their communities and spreading the teachings of faith throughout the land. Each bishop exudes wisdom and authority as they fulfill their divine calling. This remarkable engraving was originally featured in The Illustrated London News in February 1859, offering readers a glimpse into the religious landscape of colonial New Zealand during that era. Now preserved within a private collection, this print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic skill behind it but also its historical significance. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the enduring power of religion and its ability to unite people under shared beliefs. It serves as a testament to the important role that these bishops played in guiding spiritual journeys and fostering faith within early New Zealand society.
