EDITORS COMMENTS
The New Lord Mayor and Sheriffs (engraving) captures a significant moment in British political history, showcasing the esteemed figures who held positions of power and influence during the 19th century. This print, created by an English School artist, offers a glimpse into the world of Victorian politics. The central focus of the engraving is on Alderman Sir Charles Whetham, who has just been appointed as the new Lord Mayor. Dressed in his ceremonial robes and adorned with regal insignia, he exudes authority and dignity. Flanking him are Sheriff Thomas Bevan and Sheriff George Burt, both equally distinguished in their roles. This illustration was originally featured in The Graphic newspaper on November 9th, 1878. It serves as a visual representation of the changing faces within London's governance structure at that time. The men depicted here were not mere politicians; they were entrusted with upholding law and order while representing their constituents' interests. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable – from the intricate patterns on their robes to the expressions etched onto each face. Through this artwork, we gain insight into a bygone era when civic duty held great importance. Now part of a private collection but available for public viewing through Fine Art Finder's Bridgeman Images archive, this historical print allows us to reflect upon our past while appreciating those who shaped our present.
