EDITORS COMMENTS
"This striking caricature, published in Punch magazine in 1892, depicts Cecil Rhodes, the controversial British statesman, financier, and imperialist, as a colossus bestriding Africa. Rhodes, born in 1853, was a key figure in the late 19th century scramble for African colonies, with significant holdings in present-day Zimbabwe, Zambia, and South Africa. The image captures the larger-than-life persona that Rhodes cultivated, as well as the controversy that surrounded him. The caricature's title, "The Colossus," underscores Rhodes' perceived dominance and influence over the African continent. The cartoon also highlights Rhodes' imperialist ambitions, with the caption reading, "Cecil Rhodes, Esq., M.P., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.L., D.C.
