EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Lord Shaftesbury, a prominent figure in 19th-century England. Anthony Ashley Cooper, the 7th Earl of Shaftesbury, was not only an English statesman but also a moral philosopher and philanthropist. His dedication to social reform led him to pilot several acts through Parliament that significantly impacted working conditions during the Industrial Revolution. Among his notable achievements were the factory acts of 1847,1850, and 1859 which established a maximum ten-hour working day for laborers. Additionally, he played a crucial role in passing the Coal Mines Act of 1842 which prohibited women and children under thirteen from working underground. Lord Shaftesbury's commitment to welfare and philanthropy earned him recognition as one of Britain's most influential reformers. This lithograph portrait captures his dignified presence with its vibrant colors and attention to detail. The image highlights his distinguished whiskers, reflecting the fashion trends of the time. The photograph originates from The Modern Portrait Gallery in London around 1880. It serves as a testament to Lord Shaftesbury's significant contributions towards improving societal conditions for workers across England. His legacy as both a politician and humanitarian continues to inspire generations striving for positive change in their communities today.
