EDITORS COMMENTS
This full-length portrait captures Major General Sir Charles William Wilson (1812-1874) in the late 1850s or early 1860s, standing proudly in front of a plain backdrop, facing forward. Wilson, a British military officer, served as the Chief Commissioner for the British North American Boundary Commission, responsible for surveying and settling the disputed border between the United States and Canada. In this image, Wilson is depicted wearing the typical attire of the American frontier: buckskins. The rugged leather garments were a practical choice for the rough terrain of the wilderness, and the addition of a rifle in his hands emphasizes his role as a military leader and a man of the frontier. The black and white, or monochrome, albumen print, which was a popular photographic process during the Victorian era, showcases the intricate details of Wilson's clothing and weaponry. The border of the image is simple, allowing the focus to remain on the subject. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a visual representation of the people, fashion, and concepts of the time, including the meeting of frontiers and the role of warfare in the expansion of empires.
