How to Get Un-Married, Ay, There's the Rub!, 1820
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This intriguing print captures a satirical cartoon titled "How to Get Un-Married, Ay, There's the Rub!" created by JL Marks in 1820. The artwork humorously depicts the tumultuous marital situation between George IV and Queen Caroline of Brunswick. In this caricature, George IV and Queen Caroline are shown tied back to back, symbolizing their estranged relationship. The figure of Justice holds the Queen's hand, representing her fight for justice and fairness. On the left side stands Lord Brougham, a prominent political figure at that time who played a significant role in this controversial affair. The King is depicted being pulled away from his wife by Viscount Castlereagh, Lady Conyngham (Marchioness Conyngham), and Sidmouth. These figures represent influential individuals who supported George IV's attempt to dissolve his marriage after ascending to the throne. This cartoon reflects on the public scandal surrounding George IV's efforts to annul his union with Caroline following his coronation as King of Great Britain. It provides insight into not only their personal struggles but also highlights societal attitudes towards divorce during that era. Preserved within this historical image lies a visual commentary on power dynamics and political maneuvering amidst royal relationships in early 19th-century Britain.
