The photograph shows Lemare in the prime of his career, with his expressive face and intense concentration as he plays. The organ looms large behind him, its pipes and intricate details creating a sense of grandeur and majesty. The image captures the essence of Lemare's artistry and the power and beauty of the organ as a musical instrument. Edwin Harry Lemare's contributions to the world of organ music were significant and enduring, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the life and work of a true musical pioneer.
