EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Late Honourable Ah-Hoh-Kay Whampoa, CMG, Member of the Legislative Council of the Straits Settlements, and his Grandchildren" offers a glimpse into the lives of a distinguished politician and his beloved grandchildren. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a moment frozen in time. The late Honourable Ah-Hoh-Kay Whampoa was not only a respected member of the Legislative Council but also held the prestigious title of CMG (Companion of St Michael and St George). His influence and dedication to public service are evident as he proudly poses alongside his adoring grandchildren. In this illustration for The Graphic newspaper from June 12th, 1880, we witness a tender family scene that speaks volumes about love and legacy. The affection between generations is palpable as Whampoa's grandkids gather around him with wide smiles on their faces. Their youthful energy contrasts beautifully with their grandfather's dignified presence. As we explore this piece further within Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection, it becomes clear that it captures more than just familial bonds; it encapsulates an era marked by political significance. This image serves as a testament to both personal connections and historical context. Preserved within Bridgeman Images' Private Collection, this engraving invites us to reflect upon the intersectionality of family life and public service—a reminder that even those who shape nations can find solace in cherished moments spent
