EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures the distinguished visage of Major-General Sir Percy Zachariah Cox (1864-1937), a British Indian Army officer and Colonial Office administrator who played a pivotal role in shaping the political landscape of the Middle East during the early 20th century. The photograph, taken in 1922, reveals the wisdom and authority that marked Cox's illustrious career. Born in India, Cox joined the Indian Civil Service in 1885 and later transferred to the Indian Army in 1892. He served in various capacities in India, Sudan, and Egypt before being appointed as Political Agent at Uqair in 1910. In this role, he played a crucial part in negotiating the Uqair Protocol, a treaty that established the border between Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. Cox's diplomatic prowess was once again put to the test in 1921 when he was appointed High Commissioner for Palestine. During his tenure, he worked tirelessly to maintain peace and order in the region, which was then undergoing a tumultuous period of transition. The image of Sir Percy Cox is a testament to his remarkable career as a military officer, administrator, and diplomat. His contributions to the British Empire's presence in the Middle East were significant, and his legacy continues to be felt in the region today. This portrait, with its solemn yet resolute expression, perfectly encapsulates the gravity and importance of Cox's role in shaping the political landscape of the Middle East during a pivotal period in history.
