EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Captain Gordon R. E. in all his Victorian glory. Taken around 1855 by an English photographer, this portrait captures the essence of a remarkable man who would later become Major-General Charles George Gordon. With his distinguished uniform, sword at his side, and impeccably groomed mutton chops, Captain Gordon exudes confidence and authority. Seated in a studio setting, he is accompanied by a young boy, perhaps symbolizing the passing of knowledge or representing the innocence that war often disrupts. The intricate details of this photograph highlight not only the facial hair fashion of the time but also the skillful artistry behind portraiture during the 19th century. The composition beautifully frames Captain Gordon's strong features and piercing gaze, drawing viewers into his world. It is worth noting that this image was captured during a significant period in history when Gordon served in Crimea as part of the British Army. Little did he know then that he would go on to play pivotal roles in both quelling rebellions and governing Sudan before tragically losing his life defending Khartoum from Mahdist forces. Preserved within a private collection today, this rare glimpse into Captain Gordon's early years serves as a testament to his extraordinary journey from soldier to statesman. Through photography's lens, we are transported back in time to witness one man's unwavering dedication to duty and honor.
