EDITORS COMMENTS
Sir John Sinclair (1754-1835), a prominent Scottish politician and writer, is depicted in this striking half-length portrait from the 1800s. Born into a prominent Scottish family, Sinclair made significant contributions to the fields of finance and agriculture, earning him a knighthood and the title of 1st Baronet. He served as a Member of Parliament from 1780 to 1811, representing Caithness and later Orkney and Shetland. Sinclair is best known for his groundbreaking work in the use of statistical analysis in economics and agriculture. He is credited with being the first person to use the word "statistics" in the English language, as evidenced by his seminal work "The Statistical Account of Scotland," published between 1791 and 1799. This comprehensive survey of Scottish society and economy was a pioneering effort to collect and analyze data on various aspects of Scottish life, including population, agriculture, industry, and education. In addition to his political and statistical pursuits, Sinclair was also an accomplished author, penning numerous works on finance and agriculture. His influential book "A Summary View of the Agriculture of Scotland," published in 1793, provided a comprehensive analysis of Scottish agriculture and helped to shape agricultural policy in Scotland and beyond. This portrait captures the intelligence and determination of a man who played a pivotal role in shaping the economic and political landscape of Scotland during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Sir John Sinclair's legacy continues to be felt today, as his pioneering use of statistical analysis remains a cornerstone of modern economics and agricultural research.
