EDITORS COMMENTS
The Earl of Camperdown (colour litho) captures the essence of satirical caricature in this scathing satire from Vanity Fair. Created by Leslie Matthew Ward, also known as Spy, this cartoon print showcases his exceptional talent for capturing the likeness and personality of his subjects. Depicting The Earl of Camperdown, a prominent figure in British society during the late 19th century, this artwork offers a humorous and exaggerated portrayal of the nobleman. With meticulous attention to detail and vibrant colors brought to life through lithography, Ward's work brings out both the physical features and distinctive traits that define The Earl. Published on March 14th, 1895, in Vanity Fair magazine, this satirical drawing adds an element of wit and critique to its subject matter. Through clever symbolism and exaggerated facial expressions, it provides commentary on societal norms or political events prevalent at that time. This particular print is part of a private collection but has found its way into Look and Learn / Peter Jackson Collection. Its inclusion highlights its significance as a historical artifact that continues to captivate audiences today. The combination of artistic skill with biting humor makes "The Earl of Camperdown (colour litho)" an intriguing piece worth exploring for those interested in both art history and social commentary.
