    Portrait of a British Statesman: Lord Derby, 1910s

    $19.95

    This photograph features Lord Derby, a prominent British statesman and the 14th Earl of Derby, captured between 1910 and 1915. Known for his leadership during significant historical periods, Lord Derby played a crucial role in British politics, especially during World War I. He served as the Secretary of State for War, where he was involved in mobilizing Britains military efforts and managing resources. His tenure was marked by challenges, including troop shortages and logistical issues that necessitated innovations in recruitment and support for the armed forces.

    The image was produced by the Bain News Service, which was known for documenting key public figures and events during its time. The glass negative format used for this photograph was common in early 20th-century photography. It allowed for detailed images that could be reproduced with clarity. Lord Derbys portrait not only reflects his status and responsibilities but also serves as a reminder of the shifting tides in British history during the early 1900s, leading to changes in political leadership and military strategy that would shape the nation in the years to come.
