EDITORS COMMENTS
This caricature, titled 'The Story of the Wicked Wags (cont.)', dates back to 1899 and depicts a lively moment in British politics during the late 19th century. Sir Wilfrid Lawson, 2nd Baronet (1829-1906), a prominent English temperance campaigner and radical, anti-imperialist Liberal Party politician, presides over the scene with a quill in hand and an inkwell at the ready. The mischievous Lawson is seen dunking three rebellious politicians into the inkwell to quell their chatter. The trio includes Henry Du Pre Labouchere (1831-1912), a Radical MP, Timothy Michael Healy (1855-1931), an Irish Nationalist Politician and British MP, and Thomas (Tommy) Gibson Bowles (1841-1922), a well-known humourist and journalist. The artists, Francis Carruthers Gould, masterfully captures the essence of the moment, with each politician expressing a unique reaction to the dunking. Labouchere, with a look of shock and indignation, is shown being dropped headfirst into the inkwell. Healy, in the middle, tries to escape with a desperate grab for the edge, while Gibson Bowles, with a smirk, appears to be enjoying the spectacle. This amusing cartoon, published in Punch magazine, serves as a testament to the lively and often contentious political climate of the late 19th century in Britain.
