EDITORS COMMENTS
The satirical cartoon print titled "Mr Jesse Collings" captures the essence of political commentary in the late 19th century. Created by Leslie Matthew Ward, also known as Spy, this colour lithograph was published on December 1st, 1888 in Vanity Fair magazine. The caricature depicts Mr Jesse Collings, a prominent figure at the time who advocated for land reform and agricultural improvement. In this scathing satire, Collings is humorously portrayed with his iconic catchphrase "3 acres and a cow" which symbolized his belief that every working man should have access to land and livestock. The exaggerated features and comical elements highlight the artist's intention to mock Collings' ideas. This piece serves as both entertainment and social commentary, shedding light on the political climate of its era. It reflects Vanity Fair's tradition of using caricatures to critique public figures through witty visual storytelling. Preserved within a private collection now part of Look and Learn / Peter Jackson Collection, this historical artifact offers viewers an opportunity to delve into the past while appreciating artistic techniques employed during that period.
