EDITORS COMMENTS
The City's Homage to the Sirdar captures a moment of great honor and privilege as the Lord Mayor presents a Sword of Honour to Lord Kitchener in the grand Guildhall. This lithographic print, created by Frank Dadd and now part of a private collection, showcases an important event that took place on November 12,1898. In this illustration for The Graphic, we witness the ceremonial presentation of the sword, symbolizing respect and admiration for Lord Kitchener's achievements. Wearing his distinguished military uniform with pride, he receives this cherished weapon from the city's chief magistrate. The hilted sword is meticulously crafted with ivory and diamond-studded details, reflecting its significance as a token of freedom voted upon by the Corporation of London. Surrounded by an attentive guard and esteemed guests in Guildhall's magnificent chamberlain room, this ceremony exemplifies both tradition and celebration. Arthur Neville Chamberlain can be seen among those present at this historic occasion. This engraving not only highlights weaponry but also emphasizes unity between military forces and civic authorities during times when armaments played crucial roles in defense. It serves as a reminder that even amidst political parties or differing opinions, moments like these unite us all under one purpose: honoring exceptional individuals who have dedicated their lives to serving our nation.
