EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vibrant and humorous caricature, we see Henry Sampson, a prominent English newspaper proprietor and editor of the late 19th century, depicted with a mischievous grin and a boxing glove in hand. Dressed in the fashionable attire of the 1880s, Sampson's dapper appearance is contrasted by the rough and playful image of the boxing glove, suggesting his strong affinity for the sporting world. Sampson was a passionate and influential figure in the world of journalism and media during the Victorian era. He was known for his interest and coverage of various sports, particularly boxing, which was growing in popularity during this time. His newspaper, which was not specified in the image caption, was a leading source of sports news and analysis, making him a beloved figure among sports enthusiasts. The caricature, created by the talented artist Terry Parker, captures the essence of Sampson's character - a man of business and journalism, with a love for the thrill and excitement of sports. The image is reminiscent of the Entracte style, which was popular during the late 19th century and characterized by its lively and satirical depictions of contemporary figures. Overall, this caricature of Henry Sampson is a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the unique blend of business, journalism, and sports that defined the Victorian era. It is a testament to the enduring appeal of sports and the important role that the media played in bringing the excitement of the sporting world to the masses.
