Farrer Herschell, 1st Baron Herschell (1837-1899): A Distinguished Career in Law and Politics This portrait captures Farrer Herschell, 1st Baron Herschell, a prominent figure in British legal and political history. Born in 1837, Herschell rose to prominence as a lawyer, holding the esteemed position of Solicitor General for England and Wales from 1880 to 1885. His exceptional legal skills and dedication to the profession earned him a knighthood in 1885 and a peerage in 1886, making him the 1st Baron Herschell. Herschell's political career began in 1874 when he was elected as the Member of Parliament for the City of Durham. His exceptional abilities and commitment to public service were recognized once again when he was appointed as Lord Chancellor of Great Britain for the first time in 1886. He served in this role until 1892, when he was succeeded by another prominent figure, Lord Haldane. However, Herschell's tenure as Lord Chancellor was not over yet. He was reappointed to the position in 1892 and served until 1895. This Vanity Fair Spy photograph, taken in 1899, captures Lord Herschell in his later years, with the wisdom and experience of a distinguished career etched on his face. The photograph serves as a testament to his remarkable achievements and enduring legacy in British legal and political history.
