'Sydney has for generations been well served by dutiful Englishmen: Governor Arthur Phillip with his understanding of convict servitude; governor Lachlan Macquarie, who brooked little snobbery and gave the town its initial architectural base; and in our time Edmund Capon who, as ­director of the Art Gallery of NSW for 33 years, enlarged and greatly broadened its cultural and civic ­influence.'  (Introduction)
