CO 1069-601-18

from The National Archives UK

• juneb2012 said:

  Charles Pickering was commissioned to photograph public works for the government architect James Barnet in 1870. The photographs themselves were intended for display at the London Exhibition of 1873; Pickering was previously engaged as the official photographer to the Metropolitan Intercolonial Exhibition of 1870. Photographers such as Charles Nettleton and the firm of Cox & Luckin were given similiar commissions in Melbourne as photography played an increasingly important role in the work of government departments. (The collection is on the State Libray of N.S.W. database. This database has a facility to view photographs in a high quality resolution which is really the best way to view the photographs - because of size constraints I will post a link to the high resolution version beneath each photograph).

  El General de División más joven que ha tenido México: a los 23 años alcanzó ese grado y antes de los treinta años de edad fue elegido Presidente, por lo cual es también el Ejecutivo más joven que ha tenido mi país. Incomprendido por el Emperador Maximiliano, sin embargo le fue fiel hasta la muerte, en el Cerro de las Campanas, en Querétaro, en 1867.
