EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Horatio Herbert Kitchener, the 1st Earl Kitchener, a distinguished British Field Marshal, diplomat, and statesman. The portrait was created in 1902 by G Lekegian and is part of the "Celebrities of the Army" collection published by George Newnes. Kitchener's remarkable military career included regaining Sudan for Egypt through his victory at the Battle of Omdurman in 1898. He also served as commander of British forces during the Boer War from 1899 to 1902. Additionally, he held the position of War Minister from 1914 until his untimely death in 1916. The iconic image captured here became widely recognized during World War I when it was used on an influential army recruitment poster.

This unfortunate event occurred in the treacherous waters of the North Atlantic in 1916. Lord Horatio Herbert Kitchener left an indelible mark on history through his military achievements and political contributions. His legacy lives on as one of Britain's most prominent figures during a time marked by conflict and change.
