EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the essence of The Honourable G H Emerson, a prominent figure in Newfoundland's political history. The image showcases his dignified presence as Speaker of the House of Assembly during the 19th century. The portrait reveals a man who exudes authority and wisdom, with his stern gaze and composed demeanor. Dressed in formal attire befitting his esteemed position, he commands respect and admiration from all who behold him. Born in 1853, George H Emerson was not only a skilled politician but also a distinguished lawyer known for his expertise as Queen's Counsel. This print serves as a testament to his remarkable achievements and contributions to society. The artist behind this masterpiece remains unknown; however, their skillful execution is evident through intricate details that bring life to every stroke. The shading techniques employed add depth and dimension to Emerson's features, capturing both the physical likeness and inner strength that defined him. Preserved within private collections for years, this engraving now finds its place among other historical treasures. Its inclusion in publications like The Graphic on May 9th, 1891 further solidifies its significance as an iconic representation of Newfoundland's political landscape during that era. As we admire this fine art print by Bridgeman Images today, we are transported back in time to witness the legacy left by The Honourable G H Emerson – an influential statesman whose impact continues to resonate throughout history.
