EDITORS COMMENTS
This caricature depicts the charming and charismatic figure of Captain Charles Francis Buller, a prominent cricketer of the late Victorian era. Dressed in his smart attire, complete with a stylish bowler hat perched atop his head, Buller exudes an air of confidence and authority. The intricate details of the illustration, created by renowned caricaturist Terry Parker, capture the essence of the 1880s with its ornate patterns and vivid colors. Buller, born in 1846, was a celebrated cricketer known for his exceptional skills on the field. His impressive career spanned over several decades, during which he led his team with great success. The caricature captures him in a moment of repose, perhaps between overs, as he gazes off into the distance with a thoughtful expression. The image is reminiscent of the popular "entracte" illustrations that were common during the 1880s. These humorous and satirical prints were often used to entertain audiences during intermissions at the theater or as collectible items. This caricature of Buller is a testament to his enduring popularity and the cultural significance of cricket during the Victorian era. The intricate details of the illustration, from the delicate folds of Buller's suit to the intricate patterns on his hat, are a feast for the eyes. The use of bold colors and dynamic shading adds depth and dimension to the image, making it a truly captivating work of art. Whether you're a cricket enthusiast or simply appreciate the artistry of a well-crafted caricature, this print is sure to be a welcome addition to any collection.
