Ermined Urbanity, 1904
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating chromolithograph print that showcases the artistic brilliance of Spy, also known as Sir Leslie Ward. Created for Vanity Fair on May 19th, 1904, this colorful and conceptually rich cartoon offers a satirical portrayal of Sir Arthur Richard Jelf KC. Set in Edwardian England's legal system, the image depicts Judge Jelf seated on the bench with an air of erudite sophistication. His Victorian wig and spectacles lend an aura of authority to his caricatured portrait. With meticulous attention to detail, Spy captures every nuance of Jelf's appearance - from his distinguished glasses to his regal ermine robe. The artist skillfully employs vibrant colors to bring life to this early 20th-century British courtroom scene. The juxtaposition between the serious nature of justice and the whimsical exaggeration in Jelf's features creates a delightful visual irony. This print serves as both a historical artifact and a testament to Spy's talent for capturing personalities through caricature. It provides us with insight into the social fabric of Britain during this era while simultaneously entertaining us with its clever wit. As we admire "Ermined Urbanity" we are transported back in time to witness not only Sir Arthur Richard Jelf but also gain glimpses into the lives and customs of those who inhabited this fascinating period in history.
