EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print captures a historical moment in Doncaster's past. Taken on 17 September 1887, the image showcases the St. Stephens Review Presentation Cartoon, created by Tom Merry, a renowned artist of that era. The artwork features prominent figures from English politics at the time. In this colourful lithograph, we see Sir George Otto Trevelyan, Viscount John Morley, Henry Dupre Labouchere, and Sir William Harcourt depicted alongside other influential individuals. These men were key players in shaping political landscapes during their time - advocating for Home Rule and addressing pressing issues such as Irish patriotism and land reform. The cartoon cleverly incorporates elements of horse racing culture prevalent in Doncaster with its inclusion of bookies and touts. This satirical portrayal adds an intriguing layer to the image as it juxtaposes the serious nature of political discussions against a backdrop associated with leisure activities. As you delve into this fascinating piece of history through this photo print, take note of Herbert John Gladstone (1854-1930) and Charles Bradlaugh (1833-1891), both notable reformers who are also featured here. This remarkable snapshot offers a glimpse into the social dynamics and political climate surrounding Doncaster during that period. It serves as a testament to how art can encapsulate complex ideas while providing visual delight for viewers today.
