EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print showcases the colorful caricature of Thomas John Capel, known as "The Apostle of the Genteel" in a satirical cartoon from Vanity Fair. Created by Charles Auguste Loye, this artwork dates back to September 7th, 1872. In this scathing satire piece, Capel is depicted as one of the biblical apostles with a humorous twist. The artist skillfully captures his exaggerated features and distinctive personality through clever use of colors and intricate details. Loye's satirical drawing not only highlights Capel's role as an influential figure but also provides social commentary on the genteel society during that era. The cartoon serves as a reminder that even revered individuals can be subject to ridicule and parody. This print offers viewers a glimpse into French culture and European history. It reflects both Loye's artistic talent and his ability to capture significant personalities in a comical yet thought-provoking manner. Displayed within private collections, this lithograph has become an iconic representation of Loye's work. Its inclusion in Look and Learn / Peter Jackson Collection further solidifies its historical significance. As we observe this fascinating image, we are reminded of the power art holds in capturing moments in time while simultaneously provoking contemplation about societal norms and values.
