EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Robert Lowe MP, a prominent figure in the mid-late 19th century. Known for his political career as a Liberal Member of Parliament, Lowe was first elected to represent Kidderminster in 1852. His influence grew over time, leading him to hold significant positions such as Chancellor of the Exchequer and later Home Secretary during the Gladstone administration from 1868 to 1874. The image captures Lowe's distinguished appearance, dressed impeccably in formal attire complete with a bow tie. His serious expression reflects his dedication and commitment to politics during this transformative era. Despite his accomplishments, it is noted that by the time he was raised to Viscount Sherbrooke when the Liberals returned to power in 1880, failing eyesight limited his active participation in debates. Lowe's contribution extended beyond politics; he was also recognized as a Fellow of the Royal Society (FRS), highlighting his intellectual pursuits outside of parliament. This portrait serves as an enduring testament to Lowe's significance as both a statesman and scholar. Preserved through time by The Print Collector, this historical artifact offers us a glimpse into an influential period marked by political change and societal progress. It reminds us of individuals like Robert Lowe who shaped our past while leaving behind their indelible mark on history.
