The Ghost of Protection appearing to Mr Disraeli
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a satirical engraving from the 19th century that captures the political climate and humorous elements of its time. The cartoon, originally published in Punch magazine in 1851, depicts Benjamin Disraeli, an influential figure in British politics, being visited by the spectral embodiment of protectionism. The image alludes to the efforts made by Disraeli and his Conservative Party to repeal the Corn Laws, which were tariffs on imported grain that protected landowners but burdened farmers and consumers. The ghostly figure represents the concept of protectionism itself, haunting Disraeli with its presence. With clever wit and amusing caricature, this satirical drawing highlights both the struggles faced by English landowners during a period of economic change and Germany's role as a rising power in Europe. It also reflects broader political dynamics within Britain at that time. This print offers viewers a glimpse into historical events through humor and satire. It serves as a reminder of how political cartoons can provide scathing commentary on societal issues while entertaining their audience. As part of Fine Art Finder's collection, this artwork showcases British culture and adds depth to our understanding of 19th-century politics in Great Britain.
