EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white print depicts William Court Gully, also known as 'Mr. Speaker Gully,' in the role of Speaker of the House of Commons in the early 1900s. The photograph was taken by the renowned Bassano Studio and later engraved for inclusion in Cassell's History of England, Volume IX, published by Cassell and Company in London, Paris, New York, and Melbourne. William Court Gully (1846-1915) was a prominent British politician who served as a Member of Parliament (MP) for various constituencies throughout his career. His political tenure culminated in his appointment as Speaker of the House of Commons in 1900, a position he held until 1905. Gully's distinguished appearance is evident in this portrait, with his formal attire, wig, and solemn expression. The print, which showcases the intricacies of the engraving process, offers a glimpse into the political landscape of the time. The black and white composition adds to the historical significance of the image, as does the connection to Cassell's History of England. The print serves as a testament to the importance of Gully's role in British politics and the skill of the Bassano Studio in capturing his likeness. This print is an essential addition to any collection focusing on British history, politics, or portraiture. Its timeless appeal and historical significance make it a valuable acquisition for both personal and scholarly pursuits.
