EDITORS COMMENTS
"Sir Benjamin and Lady Stone: A Dynamic Duo in British Politics and Photography This portrait captures Sir Benjamin Stone (1838-1914) and his wife, Lady Stone, in an elegant pose, reflecting their significant roles in British history. Sir Benjamin, a Conservative Member of Parliament (MP) for East Birmingham from 1895 to 1909, was renowned for his deep-rooted passion for photography. He was not only an accomplished politician but also an esteemed photographer, with an impressive portfolio of over 30,000 photographic plates to his name. In 1911, Sir Benjamin was appointed as the official photographer in Westminster Abbey for King George V's coronation. During his years in parliament, he served as the unofficial House of Commons photographer, documenting the political landscape and capturing the essence of parliamentary life. Lady Stone, an elegant and gracious figure, stands proudly by her husband's side. Their shared love for history is evident in their expressions and demeanor. Sir Benjamin's keen interest in photography not only preserved historical moments but also provided a unique perspective on the political climate of the time. This photograph is a testament to the dynamic duo's contributions to British history. Sir Benjamin's photographic legacy continues to inspire and inform our understanding of the past, while Lady Stone's unwavering support and companionship added depth and meaning to her husband's remarkable journey."
