EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph titled "Political Dogs" takes us back to the late 19th century, offering a humorous and satirical glimpse into British politics. Created by Stanley Berkeley, an artist active during the late Victorian era, this print showcases his talent for anthropomorphism. In this amusing scene, dogs are depicted as politicians seated around a table engaged in political discussions. The clever use of satire highlights the absurdity of human politics through these canine characters. Each dog represents a different political faction or personality, providing commentary on the state of affairs in Great Britain at that time. The lithograph was originally published in Black & White magazine on August 6th, 1892. It captures not only the historical context but also reflects the cultural atmosphere of Germany and Europe during that period. Berkeley's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this artwork - from the expressions on each dog's face to their body language and attire. This piece serves as both entertainment and social commentary, inviting viewers to reflect upon political dynamics with a touch of humor. Now part of a private collection, this print continues to be appreciated for its artistic value and historical significance. Its presence reminds us that art has always played an essential role in reflecting society's triumphs and follies throughout history.
