EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Jonas Hanway, a renowned traveller, philanthropist, and umbrella enthusiast from 1786. In this historical image, we see Hanway braving the rainy streets with his trusty umbrella in hand. His buckled shoes and distinctive hat add to the charm of this snapshot from the past.
As a pioneer in promoting the use of umbrellas in England, Hanway was often seen as eccentric for carrying one around. However, his dedication to spreading awareness about the benefits of umbrellas eventually led to their widespread adoption in society.
The pedestrians passing by seem unfazed by Hanway's unique accessory, perhaps accustomed to his unconventional ways. Despite facing criticism and ridicule during his time, Hanway remained steadfast in his beliefs and continued advocating for what he believed was right.
Through this image, we get a glimpse into the life of a man who not only traversed distant lands but also made significant contributions to society through his philanthropic endeavors. Jonas Hanway's legacy lives on through this timeless photograph that serves as a reminder of his passion for both travel and social change.
