EDITORS COMMENTS
Lloyd George and Bonar Law, two prominent politicians of their time, are captured in this intriguing print at the Coalition Golf Club. Taken in December 1920, the image showcases a unique moment where these influential figures had to forgo the luxury of caddies due to concerns from the Anti-Waste League. David Lloyd George, known as a Liberal politician and former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom during the Coalition Government (1916-22), stands alongside Andrew Bonar Law, a Conservative politician who served as a Cabinet minister for the same coalition. Both men were faced with pressure from Lord Rothermere's Anti-Waste League, which advocated for reduced spending by government departments. The photograph offers an interesting glimpse into political dynamics and economic considerations of that era. With humor and satire prevalent throughout this cartoon-like engraving originally featured in Punch magazine on December 15th, 1921, it highlights how even influential leaders had to adapt to public sentiment regarding wastefulness. This piece serves as a reminder of historical events surrounding politics and economics during that period. It also showcases how art can capture significant moments in time while providing social commentary through its humorous depiction. A valuable addition to any collection or exhibition.
