EDITORS COMMENTS
This caricature, titled "The Empress Dowager Cixi (Tzu-Hsi) Causing Trouble for the Chinese Emperor," dates back to the tumultuous year of 1900. Created by the skilled hand of L. Dorado, this satirical work of art offers a humorous yet insightful glimpse into the complex political dynamics of the Chinese imperial court during the late Qing Dynasty. Empress Dowager Cixi, depicted in the image, is shown in a bold and assertive stance, holding the reins of a bicycle, while a representation of the Chinese Emperor sits helplessly behind her. The empress, dressed in traditional imperial robes and adorned with a long pigtail, exudes an air of control and influence over the emperor. The caption "Savage Satire on the Influential Empress Dowager Cixi" is emblazoned across the top of the print, hinting at the lampooning nature of the artwork. The empress's mischievous grin and the lantern she holds aloft add to the playful tone of the piece, while the peacock feather in her hand symbolizes her power and authority. The emperor, on the other hand, appears meek and submissive, with a look of concern on his face as he clings to the bicycle seat. This caricature, reminiscent of the popular children's book "Struwwelpeter," offers a unique perspective on the political climate of China during the late 19th century. The Empress Dowager Cixi was known for her influential role in Chinese politics, often manipulating events behind the scenes and maintaining control through treacherous means. This satirical representation of her relationship with the emperor serves as a testament to her power and the tumultuous nature of the imperial court during this period in Chinese history.
