EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of Lord George Gordon (1752-93) 1780 showcases the essence of a powerful and influential figure from the 18th century. This engraving, created by an English School artist, beautifully captures the intensity and determination in Lord Gordon's eyes. Lord George Gordon was not just any ordinary politician; he was the President of the Protestant Association during a time when religious tensions were high. The image portrays his role as an agitator against Catholics, highlighting his involvement in significant historical events such as the infamous Gordon Riots. As we gaze upon this portrait, we are transported back to a turbulent era marked by political unrest and social upheaval. Lord George Gordon's expression reflects both his commitment to his cause and perhaps hints at the consequences that awaited him for treasonous activities. This print serves as a reminder of how one man's actions can shape history. It is a testament to Lord George Gordon's influence on society during Georgian times, leaving behind an indelible mark on British politics. Displayed proudly in Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, this remarkable piece invites us to delve into our past and reflect upon those who fought passionately for their beliefs.
