EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative portrait captures the serious and contemplative demeanor of James Edward Montgomery during his tenure as Secretary of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) from 1939 to 1942. Montgomery's unwavering commitment to the advancement of mechanical engineering is evident in his intense gaze and the furrowed lines on his brow. The Institution of Mechanical Engineers, founded in 1847, is one of the oldest and most prestigious engineering institutions in the world. During Montgomery's time as Secretary, the organization continued to play a vital role in the engineering community, particularly during the tumultuous period of World War II. Montgomery oversaw the Institution's efforts to support the war effort, including the establishment of the Engineering Designs for War Committee, which coordinated the development and production of engineering designs for military use. The Institution also provided a platform for engineers to share their knowledge and expertise through meetings, conferences, and publications. This portrait serves as a testament to Montgomery's dedication to the Institution and the engineering profession during a time of great challenge and change. The photograph, taken circa 1942, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the work of mechanical engineers played a crucial role in shaping the course of history.
