EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print showcases Viscount Sandon, MP in 1878. The artist duo Lock & Whitfield beautifully captured the essence of this distinguished politician who played an active role in the House of Commons. Elected as MP for Lichfield in 1856, Sandon dedicated himself to public service. In this image, Viscount Sandon exudes confidence and authority. His neatly groomed sideburns frame his face, adding a touch of Victorian elegance to his appearance. Dressed impeccably in formal attire with a stylish accessory tied around his neck, he epitomizes the fashion trends of the 19th century. Not only was Sandon known for his political career but also for assuming important positions within government institutions. In 1878, he became the President of the Board of Trade, showcasing his expertise in trade matters during a crucial period in British history. This photograph is part of "Men of Mark: a gallery of contemporary portraits" which aimed to capture influential figures from various fields such as politics, science, literature, and art. The collaboration between Lock and Whitfield resulted in stunning images that not only documented these men but also provided brief biographical information about them. Viscount Sandon's portrait serves as a testament to his significant contributions as both a statesman and member of parliament during the dynamic era depicted by this monochrome masterpiece.
