EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white portrait captures the stern and contemplative visage of Sir Edward Grey, 1st Viscount Fallodon (1858-1933), a towering figure in British politics during the tumultuous years leading up to and including the First World War. Grey served as Foreign Secretary from 1905 to 1916, a tenure marked by his successful diplomacy in preventing war with Germany before the outbreak of hostilities in 1914. However, once war had begun, Grey played a crucial role in rallying the British people and maintaining morale through his eloquent speeches and unwavering commitment to the Allied cause. The image, taken in 1919, shows Grey in the prime of his later years, with a furrowed brow and piercing gaze that seems to convey a deep sense of responsibility and determination. His formal attire, complete with the sash of his Viscountcy, underscores his aristocratic background and esteemed position in British society. Grey's tenure as Foreign Secretary was marked by a number of significant achievements, including the Anglo-Japanese Alliance of 1902 and the signing of the Treaty of London in 1915, which helped to strengthen the Allied war effort. Despite his many accomplishments, Grey remains best known for his famous statement, "The lamps are going out all over Europe; we shall not see them lit again in our time," which he made in the House of Commons on the eve of war in 1914. This powerful photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of Sir Edward Grey, a man who played a pivotal role in shaping the course of British and European history during one of its most turbulent periods.
