EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1884, captures Thomas Collins MP, a prominent City of London financier and Conservative Party politician, in an unguarded moment of vanity. The image, published in Vanity Fair magazine, was captured by renowned British photographer Henry Fawcett. Collins, later created Baron Addington in 1885, is seen here with a thoughtful expression, his eyes fixed on the mirror as he adjusts his cravat. Dressed in formal attire, complete with a top hat and cane, Collins exudes an air of sophistication and wealth. At the time, Collins was a highly influential figure in British politics and economics. He served as a Member of Parliament for several constituencies, including for the City of London, and was a key player in the Conservative Party. Collins was also a respected economist and financial expert, and his expertise was sought after by the government during times of economic instability. Despite his public persona as a serious and accomplished politician and economist, this photograph offers a glimpse into Collins' more personal side. The title "Old Mother Hubbard" added to the caption by the magazine suggests a playful and lighthearted take on the subject, adding to the intrigue and allure of this fascinating image.
