EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the controversial relationship between British statesman Charles James Fox and his mistress, Mrs. Armistead. The image depicts Fox holding a dagger with a look of delight on his face as he urges Armistead to "Strike home! and I will bless thee for the Blow!" This historical moment from 1806 showcases the grotesque nature of their affair, with Fox's plump figure and Armistead's mysterious allure adding to the intrigue.
The caricature-like quality of this portrait adds an element of humor to an otherwise scandalous scene from British history. Despite being a powerful political figure, Fox is shown here in a vulnerable light, underlining the complexities of love and power in his personal life.
Mary Evans Picture Library has expertly captured the essence of this tumultuous relationship through their detailed depiction of Fox and Armistead. The viewer is transported back to 18th century Britain, where political scandals were rife and public figures often led double lives behind closed doors.
This print serves as a reminder that even those in positions of authority are not immune to matters of the heart, no matter how unconventional or taboo they may be. It is a testament to human nature's ability to both delight and shock us in equal measure.
