    Flickr is sometimes amazing! Not one, but two 1899 (shortly before he died in 1900) portraits by John Singer Sergeant, via eXploration Etoile And a statue via EnjoyTheViewEU

    The title "BIRTH PLACE OF THE LATE LORD RUSSEL[sic], NEWRY" implies the photo(s) were taken after 10/08/1900. Also - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000332283 (Cabinet)
