The Fight at St. Stephens Academy, 1864. Artist: John Tenniel
The Fight at St. Stephens Academy, 1864. Mrs Gamp. Never Mind, My Dear! You done yer werry best to win; which that Master Gladsting is such a huncommon strong boy! This cartoon depicts Disraeli, with his seconds in the shape of John Bright and the newspaper, the Standard, mopping the bloody nose he has received from Gladstone who, by all accounts, and contrary to expectation, had spoken against Disraeli to excellent effect. In late June, the Government had to answer their critics on the subject of why Britain had not gone to the aid of Denmark. Palmerstons reasons were numerous, but in July Mr Disraeli moved a vote of censure on the Government that they had failed to maintain their publicly stated policy of upholding the independence of Denmark. The debate went on for several nights until the movement was rejected by a majority of 18. From Punch, or the London Charivari, July 16, 1864

The Fight at St. Stephens Academy, 1864
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating political cartoon by John Tenniel that captures the intense rivalry between Benjamin Disraeli and William Ewart Gladstone during the 19th century. In this satirical portrayal, Mrs Gamp consoles an injured and bloodied Disraeli while acknowledging Gladstone's exceptional debating skills. The cartoon alludes to a significant parliamentary debate in July 1864 when Disraeli moved a vote of censure against the government for their failure to support Denmark's independence. Despite his efforts, the motion was ultimately rejected by a majority of 18 votes. Tenniel cleverly depicts Disraeli with his seconds in the form of John Bright and The Standard newspaper, symbolizing their support but unable to prevent his defeat. The image showcases not only the physicality of politics but also highlights gender dynamics as Mrs Gamp provides comfort to an injured male politician. Her presence adds depth to the scene, reminding viewers that politics is not solely confined to men. Tenniel's skillful use of caricature and satire shines through in this black-and-white engraving. The detailed depiction of clothing, including glasses, shawls, hats, and spectacles further immerses us into this historical moment. "The Fight at St. Stephens Academy" serves as a testament to Tenniel's artistic prowess and offers valuable insights into British political history during this era. It remains an enduring piece that continues to captivate audiences today with its wit and social commentary on power struggles within Parliament.
