Engraved by D.J. Pound from a Photograph by Mayall.
[n.d., c.1860.]
Engraving. Sheet 290 x 210mm (11½ x 8½"). Trimmed; creases.
Benjamin Disraeli (1804-81) Conservative Prime Mininster in 1868 and from 1874-80. He is still the only Prime Minister of Jewish descent, although his family became Anglicans when he was aged 12.
