The New Pasha of Egypt
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a satirical cartoon print created by John Doyle in 1840. This parody on Horace Vernet's lithograph depicts Lord Palmerston, the British politician, dressed in oriental attire and riding on horseback. In this caricature, Lord Palmerston assumes the character of Pasha Mohamed Ali, the Ottoman governor of Egypt. The print captures a moment in British politics with humor and wit. Lord Palmerston's extravagant headdress and exotic costume symbolize his perceived influence over foreign affairs, particularly regarding Egypt. Accompanying him is John William Ponsonby, the 4th Earl of Bessborough. Doyle's clever artwork reflects the political climate of 19th century Britain. The exaggerated portrayal of these figures highlights their roles as key players in shaping international relations during that time. Through this satirical lens, Doyle invites viewers to contemplate the complexities and absurdities inherent within political power dynamics. The fusion of comedy and commentary makes "The New Pasha of Egypt" an intriguing piece that offers insight into both historical events and human nature itself. This print serves as a reminder that even serious subjects can be approached with humor and creativity. It stands as a testament to Doyle's talent for capturing social commentary through artistry while providing us with a glimpse into an important period in British history
