EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and evocative photograph captures the charismatic and enigmatic figure of General William Booth, the English religious leader and founder of the Salvation Army, taken by the renowned Victorian painter and photographer, Sir Hubert Herkomer, in 1912. Booth, born in Nottingham in 1829, was a former Methodist minister who broke away from the established church to form the Salvation Army in 1865. With his unconventional methods, including the use of military-style uniforms and brass bands, Booth and his followers quickly gained a reputation for their passionate evangelism and social activism. In this image, Booth is depicted in his later years, with a thick white beard and piercing eyes that seem to bore into the soul of the viewer. Dressed in his distinctive Salvation Army uniform, complete with epaulets, he exudes an air of authority and determination. The photograph was taken during a time when the Salvation Army was experiencing significant growth and controversy, and Booth's unwavering commitment to his cause is palpable. Herkomer, a renowned artist and photographer, was known for his ability to capture the essence of his subjects, and this photograph is no exception. The use of chiaroscuro lighting and the stark contrast between the light and dark areas of the image add to the dramatic effect, highlighting Booth's strong features and intense gaze. This photograph is not only a testament to the enduring legacy of General William Booth and the Salvation Army, but also a fascinating glimpse into the world of Victorian religious and social history.
