EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Reverend Herbert Hensley Henson, a prominent British clergyman in 1912. The image showcases his dignified presence as he stands outside St Margaret's, donning a classic Victorian coat and top hat. Engrossed in reading a newspaper, his faithful terrier companion stands by his side, adding an endearing touch to the scene. Henson's significance within the religious community is evident through his appointment as Rector of St Margaret's, Westminster and Canon of Westminster Abbey in 1900. His dedication to Christianity led him to become Bishop of Durham in 1920, further solidifying his influential role. The artist WH skillfully portrays Henson's character with this caricature-like portrait that exudes both intelligence and warmth. The attention to detail is remarkable; every line on Henson's face tells a story of wisdom gained over time. This print from Vanity Fair dated April 24th, 1912 serves as a testament to Henson's impact on society during the early 20th century. It encapsulates not only his religious devotion but also highlights the fashion trends and social customs prevalent at that time. Preserved by Heritage Images for future generations to appreciate, this photograph allows us to glimpse into the life of an extraordinary man who dedicated himself wholeheartedly to God and served as an inspiration for many throughout Britain.
