The Marquis of Anglesey - A Satirical Masterpiece
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print showcases a remarkable satirical cartoon titled "The Marquis of Anglesey" by Carlo Pellegrini, dating back to September 18th, 1880. The image captures the essence of Vanity Fair's scathing satire, providing an insightful glimpse into the world of political caricature during that era. In this vividly colored lithograph, Pellegrini skillfully portrays the head of the Pagets with a touch of humor and exaggeration. The Marquis of Anglesey is depicted in all his grandeur and pompousness, making it abundantly clear that this is no ordinary portrait but rather a biting commentary on his character. With meticulous attention to detail and artistic finesse, Pellegrini brings forth every nuance through his masterful strokes. This satirical drawing serves as both entertainment and social critique, offering viewers an opportunity to reflect upon the follies and idiosyncrasies prevalent in high society at the time. Preserved within a private collection until now, this rare gem from Look and Learn / Peter Jackson Collection allows us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also its enduring artistic value. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork today, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how art has always been used as a powerful tool for expression and reflection on societal norms. "The Marquis of Anglesey (colour litho)" stands as testament to Pellegrini
