Our Colonial Empire - Three Australian Mayors
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an intriguing engraving from "The Graphic. An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper Volume 33. January to June, 1886." The image captures a significant moment in the colonial history of Australia, featuring the mayors of Melbourne, Sydney, and Adelaide, representing the British Empire's influence in the region. The mayors depicted in the print are James Cooper Stewart, Mayor of Melbourne; John Young, Mayor of Sydney; and Bundey William, Mayor of Adelaide. Each man wears a chain of office, signifying their positions of authority and power within their respective cities. The image underscores the British colonial administration and the establishment of local government in Australia during the nineteenth century. The mayors are shown standing in a row, with Stewart on the left, Young in the middle, and Bundey on the right. Their stern expressions and formal attire convey a sense of duty and responsibility. The background of the print is left blank, drawing focus to the mayors and their significance. The print, titled "Our Colonial Empire - Three Australian Mayors," highlights the British connection to the Australian colonies and the role of local leadership in maintaining order and governance during this period. The image serves as a reminder of Australia's colonial past and the complex web of relationships between Britain and its colonies. The print, created in 1886, is a testament to the rich history of Australia and its connection to the British Empire. The mayors' portraits, captured in this engraving, offer a glimpse into the lives of influential figures during a pivotal time in the country's development. This historical artifact continues to hold value as a valuable resource for scholars, historians, and anyone interested in the history of Australia and the British Empire.
