With a stern gaze and a well-groomed beard, Sir William's presence commands attention. The fine details etched into this print bring forth the craftsmanship of the English School that created it. Every line and contour is meticulously rendered, highlighting the artist's skill in capturing not only physical features but also character traits. Originally published as an illustration for The Practical Magazine in 1874, this print offers us a glimpse into the past when engravings were highly valued for their ability to disseminate knowledge and inspire curiosity.
