The Committee of the Imperial Institute - A Gathering of Influential Figures in 19th Century England
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment in English history, showcasing "The Committee of the Imperial Institute". The engraving, created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, offers a glimpse into this esteemed gathering. Published on February 12,1887, as an illustration for The Graphic magazine, it now resides in a private collection. In this remarkable image, we witness an assembly of distinguished individuals from various fields. Politicians such as Right Honourable Sir Lyon Playfair and Right Honourable Sir Henry Holland stand alongside renowned artists like Sir John Staples and Sir Frederick Leighton. Other notable figures include Lord Herschell and Lord Mayor of London. Led by Secretary Honourable Sir Ashley Eden, this committee played a pivotal role in organizing the Imperial Institute—a symbol of British imperial power during that era. Their efforts aimed to foster trade relationships and promote cultural exchange within the vast British Empire. Amongst these influential personalities are also Baronet KCSI (Sir Bernhard Samuelson), Mr. H Broadhurst, Colonel Sir Owen Burne, and many more who contributed their expertise to shape Britain's global influence. As we gaze upon this historic scene captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are reminded of England's rich heritage and its enduring impact on world affairs.
