EDITORS COMMENTS
Sir Alymer Gould Hunter-Weston, K.C.B. D.S.O. (1864-1940), a British Army officer of great distinction, is depicted in this striking oil painting from circa 1918. Sir Alymer served in various notable military campaigns throughout his career, including the Miranzai Expeditions of 1891 with the Waziristan Field Force and the South African War. He gained further recognition for his leadership during the Battle of the Somme in World War I, where he commanded the 29th Division at Gallipoli in 1915. After the war, Sir Alymer entered politics, becoming a Member of Parliament for North Ayrshire. This portrait, with its rich colours and intricate details, captures the intensity and determination of a man who dedicated his life to serving his country. The painting is a testament to Sir Alymer's military accomplishments and his enduring legacy. This portrait was likely published in a colour magazine or similar publication during the April of a particular year, although the exact volume and issue are unknown. The artist of this work is Philip Alexius de Laszlo, a renowned Hungarian-born British portrait painter of the time. De Laszlo's mastery of light and colour is evident in this powerful and evocative portrait of Sir Alymer Gould Hunter-Weston.
