EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, Lord Palmerston, the British statesman and Prime Minister, is presented with a portrait that would become a cherished addition to the collection of Dover, a town in England famed for its connection to the Cinque Ports. The portrait was commissioned by the townspeople, who requested that Lord Palmerston sit for the renowned artist, Sir John Everett Millais, RA, a native of Dover. The resulting full-length portrait displays Lord Palmerston in the Warden uniform of Dover, complete with the insignia of the Order of the Garter. The presentation ceremony took place at the Town Hall of Dover, where Lord Palmerston was warmly received by the Mayor and Corporation, accompanied by the Recorder. The atmosphere was filled with excitement and admiration as the townspeople, who had gathered to witness the momentous occasion, cheered in approval. Once the commotion had subsided, Lord Palmerston was presented with a Corporation address, expressing the town's gratitude and respect for his public services as the First Minister of the Crown and a senator of the realm. The address also expressed the hope that Lord Palmerston would continue to be blessed with good health and energy in his duties. This photograph, taken from the Illustrated London News in 1862, captures a significant moment in the history of Dover and the relationship between the town and its esteemed guest.
