EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative portrait, George Hardinge (1743-1816) is depicted as a man of authority and intellect, fitting for his esteemed roles as a writer, judge, and Member of Parliament for Old Sarum. The image, captured around the mid-18th century, reveals a mature Hardinge with a serious expression and piercing gaze, exuding an air of confidence and determination. Born in the late 1700s, Hardinge's political career began in Old Sarum, a notorious rotten borough infamous for its corrupt practices and influence peddling. Despite the questionable origins of his seat in Parliament, Hardinge made a name for himself as a dedicated and capable representative. His tenure was marked by his commitment to the law, and he was appointed as a judge in 1780. In addition to his legal and political pursuits, Hardinge was an accomplished writer, penning works on history, literature, and politics. His most notable publication was "The History of Old Sarum," an account of the ancient town and its tumultuous past. This work not only showcased his extensive knowledge of history but also shed light on the corrupt practices that had long plagued the rotten boroughs of England. Despite his achievements, Hardinge's reputation was forever tarnished by his association with Old Sarum. However, his contributions to the legal system and his literary works have left an indelible mark on history. This portrait serves as a reminder of a complex figure who navigated the treacherous waters of 18th-century politics and left a lasting impact on the world of letters.
