EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a significant moment in international diplomacy as British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli (1804-1881) and Marquis of Salisbury (1830-1903) attend the Berlin Congress in 1878. The Berlin Congress was an important conference where European powers gathered to discuss the future of the Ottoman Empire, particularly in the Balkans. Disraeli and Salisbury, both British statesmen, came to represent their country's interests in negotiations with Russian and Turkish leaders. Disraeli is depicted in the center of the image, holding an umbrella, while Salisbury stands beside him. The umbrella is a symbol of Disraeli's status as the head of the British delegation and also serves as a practical measure against the rain. The image is a testament to the historical significance of the Berlin Congress, which led to the signing of the Treaty of Berlin, reshaping the political landscape of Europe. The Marquis of Salisbury, who later became the Prime Minister himself, played a crucial role in the negotiations, and his presence alongside Disraeli highlights the importance of their collaboration in British foreign policy. The engraving, produced by ILN (Illustrated London News), offers a glimpse into the past, providing a visual record of a pivotal moment in international relations. The Berlin Congress of 1878 was a turning point in European history, and this image of Disraeli and Salisbury, two influential British statesmen, adds to the rich tapestry of historical records that continue to inform our understanding of the past.
