EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait print of Richard Assheton Cross, captured by an unknown English artist in the 19th century, offers a glimpse into the life of a distinguished figure. With his piercing gaze and refined demeanor, Cross exudes an air of authority and intellect. The fine details meticulously etched on this print bring to life every line and contour of his face, allowing us to truly appreciate the artistry behind this masterpiece. Richard Assheton Cross was a man whose accomplishments left an indelible mark on history. As we admire this portrait, we are reminded of his significant contributions to society during his time. A prominent British statesman and lawyer, he served as Home Secretary under Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli's government in the late 19th century. The composition expertly captures Cross' commanding presence against a simple backdrop that emphasizes his prominence within society. This photograph is part of The Modern Portrait Gallery collection published by Cassell around 1880, showcasing notable individuals who shaped their era. Preserved with care in a private collection for decades before being made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, this remarkable piece allows us to connect with history in a tangible way. It serves as both an artistic treasure and a testament to the enduring legacy left behind by Richard Assheton Cross – forever immortalized through the lens of an anonymous artist from long ago.
