EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Charles E Turner takes us back to the year 1937, offering a visual journey through the chief cities and seats of government in various regions of the British Empire. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident as he skillfully captures the essence of each capital city. The vibrant colors bring life to this historical piece, showcasing iconic landmarks and architectural marvels that symbolize power and authority. From Ottawa's majestic Parliament Hill in Canada to Pretoria's imposing Union Buildings in South Africa, every capital exudes its unique charm. The inclusion of heraldry and coat of arms adds an air of regality, representing each region's rich history and cultural heritage. Dublin's emblematic harp shines proudly alongside Belfast's symbolic ship while Australia proudly displays its national floral emblem on Canberra's coat of arms. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to a time when these capitals were at the heart of an expansive empire. It serves as a poignant reminder not only of Britain’s global influence but also highlights the diverse nations that formed part of this vast network. Charles E Turner masterfully encapsulates an era long gone but not forgotten with his artistic prowess. This print stands as a testament to both his talent and our collective past, allowing us to appreciate the grandeur and significance these capitals held within the British Empire during one pivotal moment in history.
