EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a satirical drawing titled "Baron de Staal" by Carlo Pellegrini, created in 1885. The artwork was originally featured in Vanity Fair, a renowned British magazine known for its scathing satire and caricatures of prominent figures. The image depicts Baron de Staal, the Russian Ambassador at the time, with exaggerated features and humorous details that highlight his role as a diplomatic representative. Pellegrini's skillful use of color lithography brings the cartoon to life, adding vibrancy and depth to every stroke. In this satirical cartoon, Baron de Staal is portrayed in a comical light, providing viewers with an amusing commentary on his character or actions during that period.

It serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a valuable insight into the social climate of the era.
