EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, featuring the Earl of Wharncliffe from 1876, showcases the noble and distinguished countenance of Edward Montague Granville Stuart-Wortley. The Right Honourable Earl, who had recently inherited the earldom of Wharncliffe and viscountcy of Carlton, is depicted in formal attire, adorned with the insignia of his military titles. Born in 1827, Stuart-Wortley joined the Grenadier Guards in 1846, demonstrating his commitment to military service at a young age. He further distinguished himself by serving as a Lieutenant in the 1st West York Yeomanry Cavalry and Lieutenant-Colonel of the 1st West York Rifle Volunteers. The striking image, an engraving from a photograph by Barraud and Jerrard, captures the Earl's bearded face, framed by his sideburns and neatly groomed moustache. The photograph was published in the Illustrated London News in 1876, providing a glimpse into the life of this prominent aristocrat and military figure. Barraud and Jerrard, a renowned photographic studio, were responsible for capturing this image, with George Milner Gibson Jerrard and Herbert Rose Barraud among the notable figures behind the lens. The black and white, or monochrome, image showcases the intricacies of the Earl's uniform, as well as the textures of his facial hair and the rich details of his attire. As a prominent figure in British society during the 19th century, the Earl of Wharncliffe's portrait stands as a testament to his military achievements and aristocratic lineage. This image offers a glimpse into the life of a man who embodied the spirit of duty, honor, and tradition.
