EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures James William Lowther, M.P. and Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, in the late 19th century. The image was published in "The Graphic: An Illustrated Weekly Newspaper" in December 1891. Lowther, a prominent British politician, is depicted here with a well-groomed beard and moustache, typical of the Victorian era. He is seen looking away from the camera, adding an air of mystery and introspection to the portrait. Lowther's political career began in 1865 when he was elected as the Member of Parliament for Westmorland. He held various positions in the Conservative Party and was appointed as Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs in 1891, serving under Lord Rosebery. The photograph was published in "The Graphic," a popular Victorian newspaper known for its high-quality illustrations and reporting. The image provides a glimpse into the political landscape of the time and offers a window into the appearance and demeanor of a key figure in British government. Despite the unknown creator of this photograph, it remains an important historical record of a significant political figure from the Victorian era. The intricately detailed facial hair, the formal attire, and the serious expression on Lowther's face all contribute to the timeless quality of this image, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical photographs or political memorabilia.
