Former UK Prime Minister David Cameron has made a surprising return to frontline politics as the new Foreign Secretary, appointed by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak. This unexpected comeback follows Cameron's seven-year hiatus, during which he wrote memoirs and faced controversy over his involvement with the collapsed finance firm, Greensill Capital. Photographer Rory Lewis, who previously captured Cameron's portrait in 2020, showcased the statesman's return through a series of contemplative and thoughtful images. Inspired by the works of Sir James Guthrie, Lewis aimed to convey a meditative statesman akin to political figures during the First World War. Cameron's appointment, amidst a wider reshuffle, demonstrates Sunak's willingness to take risks for political rejuvenation. As Cameron navigates international challenges in his new role, Lewis's portraits serve as a historical record, documenting a pivotal moment in contemporary British politics.
