EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures Sir Robert Peel, the Younger (1788-1850), a renowned British statesman, during his tenure as Lord Rector of the University of Glasgow. Peel, dressed in the traditional regalia of the office, wears a white robe with gold braid and a red velvet cap adorned with a white tassel. His expression conveys a sense of authority and confidence, reflecting the influential role he held in both politics and academia. Born into a prominent Irish family, Peel rose to prominence in British politics, serving as Prime Minister twice, from 1834 to 1835 and from 1841 to 1846. He is best known for his role in repealing the Corn Laws, a significant step towards free trade that helped shape the economic landscape of the United Kingdom. However, Peel's connection to Glasgow runs deeper than his brief stint as Lord Rector. He attended the University of Glasgow as a young man, where he studied law from 1802 to 1805. This experience likely influenced his decision to pursue a career in politics and law. The University of Glasgow, founded in 1451, is one of Scotland's oldest and most prestigious institutions. The position of Lord Rector is an honorary one, elected by the students to represent their interests and act as the ceremonial head of the university. Peel's election in 1835 marked a significant moment in the university's history, as he was the first Lord Rector to be elected while holding a position as a sitting member of Parliament. This photograph, taken in the mid-19th century, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the historical significance of both Sir Robert Peel and the University of Glasgow. The image serves as a reminder of the enduring impact of education and the influential figures it has produced throughout history.
