EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Lord Thurlow, a prominent figure in British history during the 18th and 19th centuries. Born in 1731, Thurlow was an accomplished lawyer and Tory politician who received his education at Kings School in Canterbury, Caius College in Cambridge, and Inner Temple. Despite facing defeat in the case of Woodfall, publisher of the Letters of Junius, he went on to serve as a member of the House of Commons from 1765 to 1778. Thurlow's career reached new heights when he was elevated to the peerage and appointed as Lord High Chancellor for an impressive tenure of 14 years under four different Prime Ministers. This engraving captures his dignified presence and intellectual prowess that made him a respected figure within both legal circles and government. The image is taken from "Biographical Illustrations" by Alfred Howard, published by Thomas Tegg, R. Griffin & Co. , J. Cumming in London, Glasgow, and Dublin in 1830. It offers us a glimpse into the aristocracy of this era while shedding light on Thurlow's significant contributions to British politics. As we gaze upon this portrait with its intricate details etched onto paper over two centuries ago, we are reminded not only of Lord Thurlow's remarkable achievements but also how art can preserve history for generations to come.
