The Lieutenant Governor's Suite

Photograph of the foyer of the Lieutenant Governor's Suite (*)
THE FOYER features a grand staircase lined with portraits of former lieutenant governors. A large portrait of Upper Canada's first Lieutenant Governor, Major-General John Graves Simcoe, painted posthumously by Sir Edmund Wyly Grier, is on loan from the Toronto Public Library. The oak hall table, console tables, and crystal chandelier – one of five that grace the Suite – come from Ontario’s former vice-regal residence, Chorley Park. Doorways lead to the lounge, drawing room, and dining room.
