EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Sir John Jackson, a prominent figure in Docks and Harbours during the early 20th century. Created by Leslie Matthew Ward, also known as Spy, this colour lithograph showcases his exceptional talent for caricature and satirical drawing. The image portrays Sir John Jackson with a touch of humor and wit. His exaggerated features and comical expression add an element of lightheartedness to the piece. The artist's scathing satire is evident in every stroke, making it clear that this cartoon was meant to poke fun at its subject. Published on September 29th, 1909 in Vanity Fair magazine, this artwork served as a form of social commentary during a time when cartoons were powerful tools for political criticism. It offers viewers an insight into the public perception of Sir John Jackson's role within the docks and harbours industry. Now part of a private collection belonging to Peter Jackson, this print holds historical significance beyond its artistic merit. Its presence allows us to reflect upon the influence that satirical cartoons had on shaping public opinion during that era. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection so that future generations can appreciate both its artistic value and its contribution to our understanding of society at that time.
