EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print captures the essence of William Joynson-Hicks, 1st Viscount Brentford, a prominent British statesman in 1926. Created by the talented artist Alick P F Ritchie, this portrait showcases Joynson-Hicks in his role as Home Secretary. The image is featured on a cigarette card issued by John Player & Sons, making it a valuable collectible from the 20th century. In this straight-line caricature, we see Joynson-Hicks exuding confidence and authority. His conservative party affiliation is evident through his demeanor and attire, symbolizing his dedication to politics and public service. Despite being depicted with a lit cigarette in hand, smoking was common during that era and should not be seen as an endorsement. The color palette chosen by Ritchie adds depth to the portrait while highlighting Joynson-Hicks' strong features. Every brushstroke brings out his charisma and intelligence, capturing both his physical appearance and inner strength. As one gazes at this remarkable piece of artistry, they are transported back to the roaring twenties in Britain—a time when political figures like Joynson-Hicks played crucial roles in shaping society. This print serves as a testament to their influence and reminds us of the rich history that has shaped our world today.
