The Portrait of a Winner!! or, Ten to One on Satan
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a vibrant and humorous colour lithograph that captures the essence of 19th-century British satire. Created by Matthew "Matt". Somerville in 1869 for The Tomahawk magazine, this illustration showcases the artist's talent for caricature and political commentary. In this comical scene, we see a jockey riding atop a devilish-looking horse named Satan. With exaggerated features and mischievous expressions, both rider and steed embody the spirit of mischief and evil. The cartoon-like style adds an element of whimsy to the overall composition. The artwork cleverly satirizes the world of horse racing and gambling prevalent during that era. It highlights the absurdity of betting odds with its title "Ten to One on Satan" suggesting that even backing such an unlikely contender could yield unexpected results. Somerville's skillful use of color brings life to every detail, from the devilish red hue adorning Satan's body to the vibrant green landscape in which they race. This attention to detail enhances both the visual appeal and narrative impact of this satirical piece. "The Portrait of a Winner!! or, Ten to One on Satan" serves as a testament to Somerville's wit and artistic prowess while providing us with insight into 19th-century British culture and politics. Its enduring charm continues to captivate viewers today, reminding us that humor can be found even in our darkest moments.
