EDITORS COMMENTS
Sir Alexander Cockburn (1802-1880): A Distinguished Scottish Politician and Judge This beautifully colored engraving depicts Sir Alexander Cockburn, a prominent Scottish figure of the 1800s. Born in 1802, Sir Alexander Cockburn rose to prominence as a lawyer, politician, and judge in Britain. He was created a Baronet in 1856 and served as the Chief Justice of the Queen's Bench from 1858 until his retirement in 1880. The image, produced by Paris and published in The Spanish and American Illustration in 1872, captures Sir Alexander Cockburn in his prime. He is depicted wearing a formal attire, including a bow tie and a barrister's wig, signifying his status as a respected QC (Queen's Counsel) and a leading counsel in the courts of England and Wales. His bald head, a common trait of men of his age during that time, is also visible in the portrait. As a politician, Sir Alexander Cockburn was a member of the Conservative Party and served as the Solicitor General for Scotland from 1852 to 1854. He was known for his strong stance on issues related to law and order and was a vocal advocate for the maintenance of the British legal system. This engraving offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable Scottish figure who left an indelible mark on British history. Sir Alexander Cockburn's legacy as a lawyer, politician, and judge continues to be celebrated in the annals of Scottish and British history.
