EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures the likeness of William Alexander, 1st Earl of Stirling, a prominent figure in history. Born around 1570 and passing away on September 12,1640, Lord Stirling played a significant role in colonialism and settlement during his time. The portrait showcases his noble stature with an air of authority and sophistication. Dressed in an elegant collar and ruff, Lord Stirling's Scottish heritage is evident in this portrayal. His piercing gaze reflects determination and ambition as he navigated the challenges of colonisation in the Americas. As one of the early pioneers, he made notable contributions to Nova Scotia's development. The intricate details captured by C Pye after John Thurston's original drawing bring this historical figure to life once again. This rare print was published on September 1,1820 by W Walker in London. Lord Stirling's legacy extends beyond his involvement with Nova Scotia; he also left a lasting impact on the United States' history. A man ahead of his time, he played a crucial role in shaping North America as we know it today. This engraving serves as a reminder of Lord Stirling's influential presence throughout history—a testament to his unwavering dedication to exploration and colonisation that forever shaped our world.
