EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the enigmatic and visionary figure of William Hesketh Lever, later Lord Leverhulme (1851-1925), a pioneering businessman and philanthropist who revolutionized the soap industry and transformed the lives of his workers. Born into a Quaker family in Bolton, Lever began his career in the soap business with his brothers, James and Samuel, forming the Lever Brothers company in 1885. Their innovative methods, including the use of palm oil and the introduction of the Sunlight soap bar, propelled the company to unprecedented success. Lever's progressive values extended beyond business, and he became renowned for his commitment to the welfare of his employees. In 1888, he founded the model community of Port Sunlight on the Wirral, providing his workers with affordable housing, schools, churches, and recreational facilities. The community, which was designed to promote a healthy and harmonious living environment, became a beacon of social reform and attracted international attention. This portrait, taken in 1925, the year of Lever's death, captures the determined and compassionate gaze of a man who dedicated his life to improving the lives of others. Lever's legacy continues to inspire, as his innovative business practices and commitment to social welfare paved the way for future generations of entrepreneurs and philanthropists.
