EDITORS COMMENTS
This humorous and satirical engraving captures a moment in British political history. The print, titled "Dizzys K rect Card for the 'Derby'" depicts Benjamin Disraeli, Earl of Beaconsfield, during the general election of 1865. Created by John Tenniel and part of Mr Punch's collection, this cartoon was published on June 3rd, 1865. The image shows Disraeli addressing a crowd from atop a stone church monument. With his characteristic wit and charm, he is seen approaching the electors with an amusing cry. The artwork cleverly comments on the extension of franchise in Britain at that time. The architectural details in the background give us a glimpse into Victorian England while also poking fun at German culture. The artist playfully includes multiple references to Germany throughout the image, highlighting its influence on British politics. This satirical drawing offers scathing satire towards both English and German politics of that era. It showcases Tenniel's artistic skills as well as his ability to capture political commentary through caricature. Now preserved in a private collection but made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, this print serves as a reminder of how art can provide insight into historical events and societal attitudes.
