Sir Robert Nicholas Fowler (1828-1891): A Distinguished Figure in London's History This photograph captures the enigmatic and distinguished figure of Sir Robert Nicholas Fowler, who served as the 64th Lord Mayor of London from 1888 to 1889. Born on July 23, 1828, Fowler was a prominent businessman and philanthropist who made significant contributions to the city of London and its people. Fowler's impressive career began in the world of finance, and he quickly rose through the ranks to become a successful stockbroker. He was also a generous benefactor, donating generously to various charitable causes and institutions. Fowler's commitment to public service led him to seek political office, and he was elected as an alderman in 1877. In 1888, Fowler was chosen to serve as the Lord Mayor of London, an esteemed position that placed him at the heart of the city's civic life. During his tenure, he worked tirelessly to improve the living conditions of the city's poorest residents, overseeing the construction of new schools, hospitals, and housing developments. Fowler was also a passionate advocate for education and worked to expand access to education for children from all walks of life. This photograph, taken during Fowler's time as Lord Mayor, captures the dignity and gravitas of a man who dedicated his life to serving his city and its people. With his stern yet compassionate gaze, Fowler seems to embody the best of London's rich history and enduring spirit. Sir Robert Nicholas Fowler passed away on February 14, 1891, leaving behind a legacy of philanthropy, public service, and dedication to the people of London. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of his remarkable life and the indelible mark he left on the city he loved.
