EDITORS COMMENTS
Caricature of Lord Salisbury: The Newly Appointed Conservative Party Leader and Leader of the Opposition, Depicted as an Orchestral Conductor with Musicians in a Theatre Pit (1881) In this satirical print, Lord Salisbury, the newly appointed Conservative Party leader and Leader of the Opposition following the death of Disraeli, is depicted as an orchestral conductor in a grand theatre. With a pince-nez perched on his nose and a thick beard covering his face, Salisbury stands before a pit filled with eager musicians, all poised to play their parts in the political drama unfolding in Westminster. The title "entracte" above the image suggests a brief interlude or pause in the larger political spectacle, as the audience awaits the next act. The caricature by Terry Parker, published in 1881, captures the essence of Salisbury's political prowess and his ability to orchestrate the Conservative Party's response to the political landscape of the time. Surrounded by the musicians, who represent various political figures of the day, including Gladstone and Bryan, Salisbury confidently raises his baton, ready to lead his party to victory. The image underscores the importance of political leadership and the role of the opposition in shaping the political discourse of the Victorian era. With a blend of humor and insight, this caricature offers a unique perspective on the political climate of the 1880s and the role of its most prominent figures.
