Born in Edinburgh, Middleton Jameson was known to his family as ‘Midge’. One of his brothers, Leander, was responsible for the ‘Jameson Raid’ in the Transvaal, designed to ignite an uprising by the British expatriate workers. Although unsuccessful, it became an element that incited the Second Boer War and Second Matebele War. Middleton’s portrait of Leander is in the primary collection of the National Portrait Gallery, London.
