EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing and humorous political cartoon from the 1880s, renowned British Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli is depicted assisting an elderly and mobility-challenged Queen Victoria as they make their way to the opening of Parliament at Westminster. The Queen, dressed in her regal attire, including her crown, orb, and sceptre, sits comfortably in her bathchair, while Disraeli, with a determined expression on his face, wheels her through the crowded streets. This image, titled "Entr'acte: Disraeli," was created by the talented cartoonist Terry Parker and published by Mary Evans Picture Library. The cartoon captures the essence of the era, highlighting the age and infirmity of Queen Victoria, who was known for her long reign and strict adherence to tradition. Disraeli, a charismatic and influential figure in British politics, is shown taking charge, demonstrating his leadership and dedication to his role as Prime Minister. The cartoon also underscores the importance of the opening of Parliament, an official state occasion that marked the beginning of a new legislative session. This image is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the relationship between the monarchy and the government during the Victorian era. It also serves as a reminder of the challenges and responsibilities that come with leadership, particularly during times of aging and infirmity. Overall, this cartoon is a must-see for anyone interested in British history, politics, and the art of political satire.
