The Punishment Inflicted on Lemuel Gulliver, December 1726
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print created by the renowned artist William Hogarth. This 18th-century masterpiece takes inspiration from Jonathan Swift's iconic novel "Gulliver's Travels" offering a satirical commentary on politics, medicine, and society. In this humorous etching, Hogarth skillfully depicts the punishment suffered by Lemuel Gulliver in Lilliput – a land of tiny inhabitants. The scene showcases an unfortunate moment as Gulliver lies face down while his bare buttocks are subjected to an unusual treatment for constipation. With meticulous detail, Hogarth portrays the absurdity of the situation: a group of Lilliputians administer an enema using a comically oversized syringe. Through this artwork, Hogarth cleverly criticizes British politics and its leaders during his time. By depicting Gulliver as both victim and political figure (possibly representing a prime minister), he highlights the flaws and follies within those in power. This print not only serves as entertainment but also offers insight into societal norms surrounding science and medicine in the eighteenth century. It reminds viewers that even great men like Gulliver can be subject to ridicule when confronted with unconventional remedies. Displayed at The Met museum today, "The Punishment Inflicted on Lemuel Gulliver" continues to captivate audiences with its wit and artistic brilliance. It stands as a testament to William Hogarth's talent
