His Mistress's Vice: A Playful Moment of Indulgence with Bonzo, the Mischievous Canine Sensation This delightful photograph captures a moment of amusement and vice as Bonzo, the beloved small dog creation of English artist George Ernest Studdy, explores the allure of his mistress's handbag. With saucer-like eyes filled with curiosity and mischief, Bonzo investigates the contents of the bag, discovering a mirror and various cosmetics. In this 1923 image from The Illustrated London News, published by Mary Evans, Bonzo is seen having 'fun' with a powder puff, lipstick, and mirror, showcasing the dog's irresistible charm and the humanizing qualities that made him an international sensation. George Studdy, the creator of Bonzo, first introduced the dog character in The Sketch in 1922. The Bonzo craze soon swept the world, resulting in an extensive array of merchandise, including postcards, annuals, toys, and more.
