EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases John Morley, 1st Viscount Morley of Blackburn (1838-1923), a distinguished British Liberal statesman, writer, and newspaper editor. With his piercing gaze and dignified demeanor, Morley exudes an air of authority and intellect. Elected as a Member of Parliament in 1883, he held several prominent positions throughout his career. Notably, Morley served as Chief Secretary for Ireland in 1886 and again from 1892 to 1895. His tenure as Secretary of State for India spanned from 1905 to 1910 with a brief return in 1911. Additionally, he assumed the role of Lord President of the Council between 1910 and 1914. Morley's commitment to liberal principles is evident through his association with the Liberal Party and his contributions to liberalism itself. This portrait captures him at a pivotal moment when he was featured on Hignetts Butterfly Medium Cigarette card series titled "Modern Statesmen" in 1906. As one examines this image closely, it becomes apparent that Morley stands head and shoulders above others both metaphorically and literally. His influence within British politics during the early twentieth century cannot be overstated. Preserved by The Print Collector29 collection, this photograph immortalizes an iconic figure who played an instrumental role in shaping Britain's political landscape during a transformative era.
