EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking silhouette portrait captures the distinguished figure of Baron Rayner Goddard (1877-1971), who served as Lord Chief Justice of England from 1946 to 1958. The image, dating from the 1940s, presents a profile view of Goddard, dressed in the formal attire of the time, including a white collar and tie. The use of silhouette technique adds an intriguing depth and timeless quality to the portrait, emphasizing the strong jawline and serious expression of the subject. Baron Goddard's legal career spanned over four decades, beginning with his appointment as a King's Counsel in 1921. He went on to serve as a judge of the High Court of Justice in 1934 and was later elevated to the House of Lords as a Law Lord in 1941. In 1946, he was appointed Lord Chief Justice, a position he held until his retirement in 1958. The silhouette portrait, signed by the artist, is a historical document that offers a glimpse into the past and the esteemed legal career of Baron Goddard. The image is a testament to the enduring tradition of portraiture and the importance of the legal profession in shaping the history of England and the United Kingdom.
