1809 1873 1882 Caricatures Darwin Depicted Depiction Evolution Jungle Research Ridicule Satire Satirical Scientist Stick Straggly Tropical Waddy Week Wild


EDITORS COMMENTS
This whimsical and satirical print depicts the renowned scientist Charles Darwin as a wild man of the jungle, with a beard that almost reaches his feet. Created in 1882, this caricature showcases Darwin walking through a tropical landscape with a long stick in hand, embodying the image of an explorer on a scientific expedition. The artist's depiction of Darwin as a wild man is both humorous and thought-provoking, offering a unique perspective on the father of evolutionary theory. Despite his serious contributions to science, this portrayal adds an element of playfulness to his legacy. In this cartoonish representation, Darwin's straggly beard and rugged appearance are exaggerated for comedic effect. The Victorian-era satire pokes fun at the scientist's dedication to research and exploration, while also highlighting his iconic status in history. As one of many caricatures created during the 1870s that sought to ridicule public figures, this print stands out for its clever interpretation of Darwin as a larger-than-life figure in the world of science. Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this piece as part of their collection, capturing a moment in time when satire was used to both entertain and provoke thought about society's most prominent individuals.
