EDITORS COMMENTS
"This intriguing cartoon, titled 'Next Week's Bashers: Waiting for the Old Man,' depicts a pivotal moment in Victorian political history. Dated February 1884, during the height of the Gladstone-Chamberlain controversy, the image shows Liberal Prime Minister, William Ewart Gladstone, being ambushed by a group of rough-looking MPs, or 'bashers,' around a darkened corner. Gladstone, wearing a top hat, is seen walking cautiously along the pavement, unaware of the impending danger. The ruffian MPs, led by Randolph Churchill, are shown lurking in the shadows, their faces hidden in the darkness, waiting to pounce. The political tension between Gladstone and his opponents reached a boiling point in the 1880s, leading to numerous physical altercations and heated debates in Parliament. The cartoon, published in the satirical magazine 'Bryan's Entracte,' captures the volatile political climate of the time and the intense rivalry between the various factions. The image serves as a reminder of the rough-and-tumble nature of politics during the Victorian era, where political differences could lead to violent confrontations on the streets of Westminster. The use of humor and exaggeration in the cartoon adds to its appeal and sheds light on the public's fascination with the political drama unfolding in Parliament. The image is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the political landscape of the late 19th century and the personalities that shaped it."
