EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the 19th century showcases a Victorian caricature of Sir Henry Cole, an influential English civil servant and inventor. Renowned for his contributions to commerce and education in Britain, Cole's most notable achievement was conceptualizing the idea of Christmas greetings cards. In 1843, he introduced the world's first commercial Christmas card, forever changing holiday traditions. Created by James Tissot for Vanity Fair in 1871, this large-scale lithograph captures the essence of Cole with its retro styling and historical clothing. The portrait is a satirical representation, highlighting his oversized build and old-fashioned appearance with white hair. Despite his physical attributes being exaggerated in this caricature, it serves as a humorous commentary on vanity and societal norms during that era. The image transports us back to a time when men dominated positions of power and influence. It reflects the period costume and Victorian style prevalent during Cole's lifetime. This antique engraved illustration offers insight into both history and culture while showcasing the justice concept through equality satire. As we admire this print today, we are reminded of how far society has progressed since then - embracing diversity in all forms. While some aspects may seem outdated or comical to our modern sensibilities, it serves as a testament to human progress over time.
