The Conduct of the Two Brothers - A Satirical Glimpse into 18th Century English Politics
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases a remarkable etching titled "The Conduct of the Two B*****rs" originally published by George Bickham the Younger after Pietro Testa in 1749. The artwork, part of an English School collection from the 18th century, offers a fascinating insight into the political landscape of that era. Depicting a scene from within the House of Commons, this satirical cartoon delves deep into foreign policy and government affairs. The focus lies on two prominent figures - Henry Pelham and his brother, Thomas Pelham-Holles, Duke of Newcastle - who were influential Whig politicians at that time. The image is both thought-provoking and visually striking as it portrays one brother disemboweling himself while holding a scroll labeled "Foreign Policy". This symbolic gesture highlights their controversial approach to governance and satirizes their decision-making abilities. Through clever caricature and biting satire, this artwork provides commentary on power dynamics within England's political sphere during this period. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, politics was rife with intrigue and manipulation. This intriguing piece captures not only historical significance but also artistic brilliance. Its presence in private collections ensures its preservation for future generations to appreciate. As we delve into its details, we are transported back to an era where politics was ripe for scrutiny through artistry and wit.
