EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the statue of Sir Robert Geffrye, an English merchant, philanthropist, and Lord Mayor of London. The statue is located at the Geffrye Museum in Shoreditch, London, which was formerly almshouses bequeathed by Sir Robert himself. The photograph was taken by an anonymous English photographer from the 20th century and is part of a private collection. The image showcases the historical significance of Sir Robert Geffrye's contribution to society through his charitable acts. The postcard, dating back to the early 20th century, serves as a visual testament to his legacy. Sir Robert Geffrye's statue stands tall with a dignified presence against the backdrop of the museum. He is depicted wearing traditional attire from the 17th or 18th century - a cloak and jacket - along with a wig and sword that symbolize his status as Lord Mayor. The photo not only highlights Sir Robert's memorial but also provides glimpses into German culture and history through its mention of Germany and Germans in its description. This adds another layer of interest for those interested in European heritage. Overall, this image offers viewers a glimpse into both British history and philanthropy while showcasing fine art photography skills captured by Bridgeman Images.
