EDITORS COMMENTS
A Man of Deeds - A Typical Solicitor by Dudley Hardy (circa 1910) This charming and witty cartoon by Dudley Hardy, titled "A Man of Deeds - A Typical Solicitor," offers a humorous glimpse into the world of legal proceedings during the early 20th century. The image depicts a solicitor, dressed in formal attire with a briefcase in hand, standing next to a large, ornate desk cluttered with papers and legal documents. His expression is serious, yet slightly amused, as he gazes at a small, mischievous imp that sits atop a pile of documents, playfully tearing them apart. The imp's presence serves as a clever representation of the often laborious and intricate nature of legal work. Despite the chaos and distraction caused by the imp, the solicitor remains focused, demonstrating his dedication and expertise in managing the complexities of the legal system. The cartoon's title, "A Man of Deeds," highlights the importance of a solicitor's role in drafting and executing legal agreements, ensuring that the deals are carried out as intended. Dudley Hardy's artwork, created circa 1910, offers a delightful and humorous perspective on the profession of soliciting, which was undergoing significant changes during this period. As the legal landscape evolved, so too did the role of solicitors, who became increasingly important in providing advice and representation to individuals and businesses alike. This cartoon serves as a testament to the resilience and determination of solicitors in navigating the complexities of the law, even in the face of playful distractions. Mary Evans Picture Library is proud to offer this unique and engaging image for licensing, providing a glimpse into the history of the legal profession and the lighter side of its daily challenges.
