EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous engraving titled "Cock-a-doodle-doo, or, the Great Protectionist" captures a satirical moment in 19th-century British politics. Created by an English School artist and part of a private collection, this cartoon was originally published on March 10,1849. It serves as an illustration for Benjamin Disraeli's work from the Collection of Mr Punch. In this amusing artwork, we see a champion rooster proudly proclaiming its protectionist stance while standing atop a globe representing Europe. The cock-a-doodle-doo is both comical and symbolic, reflecting England's agricultural interests during that time. The cartoon cleverly mocks Germany's growing influence in European trade by depicting Germanic figures surrounding the rooster. With scathing satire and caricatured expressions, it highlights tensions between Britain and Germany within the context of European politics. This satirical drawing not only provides entertainment but also offers insight into political dynamics during the era. Its witty commentary on protectionism and national identity resonates even today. Displayed against a backdrop of British culture and history, this print showcases how art can be used to convey complex ideas with humor and creativity. As part of Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, it invites viewers to delve into historical contexts while appreciating artistic expression at its finest.
