EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and comical lithograph captures a historical moment of heckling during a parliamentary campaign. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases the lively atmosphere surrounding political events of the time. The illustration, possibly by Louis Wain, was featured in The Million magazine in 1892. In this amusing scene, a candidate for parliamentary honours finds himself at the mercy of mischievous onlookers - cats! These feline troublemakers take center stage as they hilariously disrupt the serious proceedings with their antics. With their playful expressions and witty gestures, these furry hecklers bring laughter and entertainment to both politicians and spectators alike. The artwork not only highlights the humorous side of politics but also reflects society's fascination with animals during that era. George Newnes' publication aimed to captivate readers with its blend of wit and charm, making it immensely popular among cat lovers. This delightful lithograph is part of Look and Learn's Valerie Jackson Harris Collection. It serves as a reminder that even amidst serious matters such as parliamentary debates, moments of light-heartedness can arise unexpectedly – thanks to our beloved four-legged friends.
