EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Mr Herbert Herkomer, a multi-talented artist known for his prowess in painting, sculpting, and even blacksmithing. Created by Francis Carruthers Gould in 1884 for Vanity Fair's satirical cartoon section, this colour lithograph showcases Herkomer's larger-than-life personality and artistic versatility. In this satirical drawing, we see Herkomer portrayed with exaggerated features and a mischievous twinkle in his eye. The caricature highlights his diverse skill set as he is depicted holding various tools of his trades - a paintbrush, hammer, chisel - symbolizing his mastery over different artistic mediums. It is evident that Gould intended to capture the essence of this remarkable individual through scathing satire. Herkomer's contribution to the art world was not only limited to traditional forms but also extended to unconventional practices like blacksmithing. This unique blend of talents made him an intriguing figure during the late 19th century art scene. The vibrant colours used in this lithograph bring life to the image while adding depth and dimensionality. As we gaze upon this piece from Peter Jackson Collection’s Look and Learn series, we are transported back in time to witness a moment when satire met creativity. This print serves as a testament to Mr Herbert Herkomer's indomitable spirit and boundless imagination; it encapsulates both his eccentricity as well as his undeniable talent.
