EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Major-General Charles George Gordon, a renowned English soldier who lived from 1833 to 1885. Known by various names such as Chinese Gordon, Gordon Pasha, and Gordon of Khartoum, he left an indelible mark on history. The image captures his commanding presence and distinguished military attire. Gordon's illustrious career began during the Crimean War when he served as an officer in the British Army. However, it was in the early 1860s that he truly made his mark. Leading his men with unwavering determination, they played a pivotal role in suppressing the Taiping Rebellion. Tragically, fate had other plans for this valiant leader. On January 26th, 1885, while stationed at Khartoum, forces of the Mahdi overwhelmed the city and claimed General Gordon's life. His untimely demise sent shockwaves across nations and solidified his status as a martyr. The photograph itself is a testament to both its subject's significance and the era in which he lived. With its vibrant colors and meticulous detailing captured by The Print Collector29 for Ogdens' Leaders of Men cigarette cards series in 1924; it immortalizes General Gordon's legacy within this exquisite engraving. As we gaze upon this remarkable print today, let us remember Major-General Charles George Gordon - a man whose bravery knew no bounds - forever etched into history as one of England's most revered soldiers and administrators.
