EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts Sir Wilfrid Laurier, a prominent Canadian politician and prime minister, in the early 1900s. The image is an engraving based on a photograph taken by W.J. Topley and was published in "Cassell's History of England, Vol. IX" by Cassell and Company, Limited. Sir Wilfrid Laurier, born in 1841 in Quebec, Canada, served as the prime minister of Canada from 1896 to 1911. He is best known for his leadership during a period of significant growth and expansion for the country. In this portrait, Laurier is depicted wearing formal attire of the time, including a high collar, which was popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Eton collar, as it was called, was a high, detachable collar that could be worn with a variety of coats and suits. The print, which is a testament to the fashion trends of the time, also provides a glimpse into the political landscape of Canada during the early 1900s. Laurier's political career was marked by his commitment to social reforms, economic development, and foreign policy initiatives. His leadership helped shape the country's identity and paved the way for its continued growth and prosperity. The print, which is part of The Print Collector's collection, is a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs or political memorabilia. Its intricate engraving and high-quality paper make it a beautiful and unique piece, worthy of display in any home or office. Whether you're a history buff, a collector, or simply someone who appreciates the art of photography, this print of Sir Wilfrid Laurier is sure to be a conversation starter and a source of inspiration.
