EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment in time - the New Year Honours of 1897. The image showcases a group of distinguished individuals who have been recognized for their exceptional contributions to society. Among them are military officers, diplomats, politicians, and knights. In the foreground stands Sir Frank Lascelles, a Knight Grand Cross and Member of Parliament. His presence exudes authority and prestige as he is surrounded by ambassadors from various countries. To his right is Sir John Kennaway, another Knight Grand Commander, alongside Major General Sir Owen Tudor Burne of the Indian Empire. The composition also includes notable figures such as St John Brodrick, a politician holding the title "Right Honourable" and baronet Sir John Morrell Carrington. Additionally, we see GCIE (Knight Grand Commander) Sir Elliott Lees; CMG (Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George) Sir Thomas Wardle; GCB (Knight Grand Cross) Sir William Birt; and Sir James Laing. Captured by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print offers us a glimpse into an era where recognition was bestowed upon those who had made significant contributions to their respective fields. It serves as a testament to their achievements while reminding us of the importance placed on honor and distinction during that time period.
