EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print showcases James Russell Woodford, the esteemed Bishop of Ely in 1880. The artist behind this remarkable piece is Lock & Whitfield, renowned for their ability to capture the essence and character of their subjects. Woodford's distinguished career began when he received a Doctorate in Divinity in 1869. His dedication to his faith led him to be appointed as one of the queen's chaplains in 1872. A year later, he ascended to become the Bishop of Ely, with his consecration taking place at Westminster Abbey. Beyond his religious duties, Woodford played a vital role in rebuilding the cathedral school at Ely and establishing a theological college there. This demonstrated his commitment not only to spiritual matters but also to education and nurturing future generations. The portrait itself exudes Victorian elegance, with Woodford dressed impeccably in clerical attire complete with a dog collar. His sideburns add an air of distinction while emphasizing that this photograph was taken during the nineteenth century. Lock & Whitfield expertly captured Woodford's presence and charisma through their lens, creating an enduring image that reflects both his religious devotion and societal influence. This print serves as a testament to an influential figure who left an indelible mark on both church history and educational development within Ely.
