EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases John Lubbock, the first Baron Avebury, a remarkable figure in 19th-century England. A man of many talents and accomplishments, Lubbock was not only an English banker but also an archaeologist, naturalist, and politician. His influential book "Prehistoric Times" published in 1865, revolutionized the field of archaeology by introducing the terms Palaeolithic and Neolithic for the first time. Beyond his archaeological contributions, Lubbock conducted extensive research on insect behavior, particularly ants. His scientific endeavors earned him recognition as an esteemed entomologist. In this lithograph portrait from around 1880, we see a distinguished gentleman with a full beard and commanding presence. The image captures his intellectual prowess and Victorian-era elegance. Lubbock's political career aligned with his liberal beliefs as he served as a member of the Liberal Party. As a statesman representing Britain during this period of history, he played an active role in shaping policies that impacted both his country and its people. This photograph serves as a testament to Lord Avebury's multifaceted nature – embodying intellectuality through science while simultaneously engaging in politics at the highest level. It is no wonder that John Lubbock left such an indelible mark on British society during one of its most transformative centuries.
