EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the distinguished figure of Joseph Bazalgette, an English civil engineer, in 1887. With his bald head, thick moustache, and well-groomed sideburns, Bazalgette exudes a sense of authority and professionalism. His serious expression reflects the gravity of his work in public health engineering. Bazalgette's most notable achievement was designing the revolutionary London sewerage system, completed in 1875. This groundbreaking project significantly reduced pollution in the Thames River and greatly improved public health throughout the city. The photograph also showcases another one of his accomplishments - the Thames Embankment - which not only accommodated the sewer but also provided a convenient thoroughfare along the river. In this image, we see more than just a man; we witness a visionary who dedicated himself to improving sanitation and hygiene for countless people living in England's capital. His expertise as a civil engineer is evident through his attention to detail and meticulous planning. As we gaze upon this monochrome portrait from over a century ago, it serves as a reminder of Bazalgette's lasting impact on society. His legacy lives on through these remarkable achievements that continue to benefit generations long after his time.
