EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking black and white portrait captures the distinguished visage of Right Hon. Lord John Russell, M.P. (1802-1878), who served as the British Prime Minister from 1846 to 1852 and again from 1865 to 1866. Russell was a prominent figure in British politics, holding various positions in the Whig Party and the Liberal Party throughout his career. He was created Earl Russell of Kingston Russell in 1847 and later became Viscount Amberley of Amberley and of Ardsalla in 1861. The portrait, published in "Cassell's Illustrated Family Paper; London Weekly" between December 31, 1853, and December 30, 1854, showcases Russell in a formal setting, with a serious expression and a well-groomed appearance. His attire, consisting of a collared shirt, waistcoat, and cravat, is typical of the fashionable dress of the mid-19th century. The background is simple, with a dark, textured fabric that adds depth and contrast to the image. Russell's political career was marked by significant reforms, including the Repeal of the Corn Laws, the passage of the Reform Act of 1867, and the abolition of the death penalty for various crimes. He is remembered as a liberal statesman who championed individual freedoms and the expansion of democracy in Britain. This portrait offers a glimpse into the life of one of the most influential political figures of the 19th century.
