Gage, a name that echoes through history with various connotations and connections. From Sir John Gage, a prominent figure in the 16th century, to Thomas Gage, the English colonial governor of Massachusetts in the late 18th century. These individuals faced their own unique challenges and left their mark on different eras. In Hans Holbein the Younger's painting "Sir John Gage, " we catch a glimpse of this influential man from c1532-1543. The artist skillfully captures his presence and importance during that time. Fast forward to 1774, where a political cartoon titled "Thomas Gage: A Political Lesson" portrays the struggles faced by Governor Thomas Gage as he attempted to suppress popular opposition in Massachusetts. This mezzotint cartoon sheds light on the difficulties encountered by those in power during times of unrest. But let's not forget about Prune Royale. This variety of Prunus Domestica plum has its own connection to the name Gage. Perhaps it was enjoyed at Hengrave Hall or even advertised by Yardley & Co back in the day. Moving into more modern times, an advertisement for an English Electric fridge from 1951 catches our attention. It reminds us how brands like English Electric have played a role in shaping our daily lives throughout history. The South Sea Bubble also comes into play when discussing Gage. Change Alley witnessed this infamous event unfold in 1720, leaving many investors devastated financially. It serves as a reminder of how greed can lead to disastrous consequences. Lastly, we come across Imogen Grenfell's artwork "The Last Resource. " Painted on canvas, it prompts us to ponder what resources we have left when all else fails – perhaps resilience or determination.
