EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment in international relations as Benjamin Disraeli, the Earl of Beaconsfield, stands amidst a curious crowd in Berlin, Germany, in 1878. Disraeli, a British statesman and novelist, served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom twice, during 1868-1874 and 1874-1880. Here, he is seen engaging with the German people during a state visit, marking a significant shift in Anglo-German relations following the Franco-Prussian War. The image, taken in the late 19th century, showcases Disraeli's distinctive appearance with his bushy sideburns, long beard, and top hat. The crowd, dressed in their finest attire, is a testament to the grandeur and opulence of the era.

This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing valuable insights into the historical context of the time. The year 1878 was a pivotal one in European history, with significant events such as the Congress of Berlin, which aimed to settle the aftermath of the Russo-Turkish War.
