EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "New Members of the House of Commons" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the political landscape of that era. The image showcases a diverse group of individuals who have recently joined the esteemed House of Commons. Amongst them, we see distinguished figures such as an honorary secretary, governor, professor of geometry, assistant editor, and professor of military history. Each person represents a unique background and expertise that they bring to this prestigious institution. Notable personalities captured in this print include Mr. Thomas Robinson, Alderman Thomas Wayman - mayor of Halifax -, Saffron Walden's mayor, and even members associated with institutions like Dulwich College and Oxford University Boat Club. The composition also features prominent figures from various industries: a corn merchant named Mr. E. R. Russell; Lieutenant General Sir Edward Bruce Hamley - renowned for his military achievements; vinegar manufacturers; lace manufacturers; and representatives from railway companies. This engraving serves as both an historical document and a testament to the diversity within British politics during this period. It reminds us that democracy thrives on different perspectives coming together for collective decision-making. Preserved in private collections today but originally published in The Illustrated London News on December 26th, 1885, this artwork by Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate the rich tapestry woven by these new members as they embark on their parliamentary journey.
