EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "General Gordon" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into a significant historical figure's life. The image showcases General Charles George Gordon, an esteemed military leader known for his involvement in the Crimean War. The print captures General Gordon in all his glory, exuding strength and determination. His stern gaze reflects the weight of responsibility he carried during this tumultuous period. Dressed in full military attire, he stands tall amidst a backdrop that hints at the architectural marvels of Sebastopol. This artwork was originally published as an illustration for The Graphic on March 8th, 1884. It serves as both an educational tool and a testament to General Gordon's remarkable achievements. As we observe this piece closely, we can almost imagine ourselves transported to Taunton in 1855 when it was first received by eager students hungry for knowledge about their nation's history. Through this evocative engraving from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of the bravery and sacrifice exhibited by individuals like General Charles George Gordon during times of war. It invites us to reflect on our own capacity for resilience and leadership while appreciating the rich tapestry of human history that has shaped our world today.
