EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures the distinguished visage of Sir William Maynard Gomm, a renowned British Army commander who rose through the ranks to become the Constable of the Tower of London in 1872. Born in 1784, Gomm's military career began in earnest as he joined the army during the Napoleonic Wars. He served with great distinction in several key battles, including the Battle of Waterloo, where he commanded the 1st Foot Guards. Gomm's military prowess and dedication to duty earned him numerous accolades and promotions. He was appointed a Knight Commander of the Bath (KCB) in 1854 and was later promoted to the rank of Field Marshal in 1866. However, Gomm's tenure as Constable of the Tower of London is perhaps his most famous and enduring legacy. The Tower of London, a historic fortress and symbol of British monarchy, holds great significance in the annals of British history. Gomm's appointment to this esteemed position in 1872 marked the culmination of a long and illustrious military career. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, captures Sir William Maynard Gomm in his later years, with the wisdom and experience of a lifetime etched on his face. The image, published in Vanity Fair, is a testament to his storied military career and his role as the Constable of the Tower of London. The photograph is a valuable historical document that offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable British military figure.
