Striking Scene between Queen Elizabeth and her favourite Essex - A Humorous Satirical Cartoon
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This aquatint print, titled "Striking Scene between Queen Elizabeth and her favourite Essex" by Richard Doyle, offers a delightful glimpse into the comical side of history. Depicting a famous event from the past, this cartoon captures the amusing interaction between Queen Elizabeth I of England and her beloved Earl of Essex. In this satirical drawing, we witness an unexpected scene as the queen and her favorite engage in a boxing match. The exaggerated expressions on their faces add to the humor, while their oversized ears become focal points of amusement. This rejected cartoon was originally intended for publication in "Selections from the Rejected Cartoons" showcasing its entertaining nature. The artist's clever use of satire allows us to explore historical events with a lighthearted twist. Through this pastiche depiction, figures such as Sir Robert Knolles and Sir George Carew also make appearances, adding further layers to the narrative. With its witty portrayal of these prominent personalities from English history, this satirical cartoon invites viewers to chuckle at its scathing satire. Its humorous take on well-known characters creates an engaging visual experience that transcends time. As we gaze upon this intriguing piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded that even great historical figures had moments filled with laughter and levity amidst their weighty responsibilities.
