Statue of Lord Somers, by W. C. Marshall, R.A. 1856. Creator: Unknown
Statue of Lord Somers, by W. C. Marshall, R.A. 1856. Rebuilding of the Houses of Parliament in London. One of the statues...with which St. Stephen's Hall is being gradually ornamented. There is much repose and dignity in the figure, he rests upon the left leg, whilst the right is slightly put forward. In his left hand he holds the bag containing the seals of office: this is just carelessly held also by the right hand. The costume and detail are well conceived. The whole is a work of very great merit, and bears out the well-earned fame of the sculptor'. John Somers, 1st Baron Somers, was Lord Keeper of the Great Seal of England, President of the Royal Society, and Lord High Chancellor of England 1697-1700. From "Illustrated London News", 1856

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Statue of Lord Somers, sculpted by W. C. Marshall, R.A. in 1856. The statue is one of several being installed in St. Stephen's Hall as part of the rebuilding of the Houses of Parliament in London. Lord Somers, depicted in full length, exudes a sense of calm and dignity. He rests on his left leg while his right is slightly advanced. In his left hand, he casually holds the bag containing the seals of office, which is also loosely grasped by his right hand. The intricately detailed costume and overall conception of the sculpture are of great merit, reflecting the renowned talent of the sculptor. John Somers, 1st Baron Somers, was an esteemed figure in British politics during the 17th century. He served variously as Lord Keeper of the Great Seal of England, President of the Royal Society, and Lord High Chancellor of England from 1697 to 1700. This impressive statue honors his significant contributions to British political and intellectual life. The print, originally published in the Illustrated London News in 1856, captures the essence of this historical figure and the meticulous craftsmanship of Marshall's sculpture. The image serves as a testament to the rich artistic and political heritage of Britain during the 19th century.
