EDITORS COMMENTS
is a vibrant and satirical colour lithograph that captures the essence of 19th-century British political humor. Created by Matthew "Matt". Somerville in 1868, this artwork was originally published in The Tomahawk magazine. The image depicts a comical scene where prominent activists and politicians are portrayed as avid anglers. With fishing rods in hand, they symbolize their pursuit of political power and influence. Among the caricatured figures are Charles Bradlaugh and George Odger, both known for their activism during this era. This satirical cartoon cleverly combines elements of politics, religion, and atheism to create a scathing satire on Victorian society. It reflects the ongoing debates surrounding faith and reason during that time period. Somerville's artistic style shines through with his attention to detail and humorous portrayal of each character. The use of bright colors adds vibrancy to the print while enhancing its comedic effect. As an iconic piece from the 19th century, "Not for Jo (hn Stuart Mill) or, A Smith for Westminster" offers viewers a glimpse into British culture at that time. Its witty commentary on politics makes it relevant even today. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate Somerville's talent as well as delve into the rich history behind this artwork.
