EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon print, titled "He's not to have ten thousand a year, tiddy-fol-lol!", dates back to January 24, 1885, and depicts Prince Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence and Avondale (1864-1892), in a light-hearted and humorous setting. The prince, who was the second eldest son of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, was known for his extravagant lifestyle and love for fine things. The cartoon, created during the late Victorian era, shows Prince Albert Victor in a casual pose, seated in an armchair with a bowler hat on his head and a cigarette in hand. He is seen wearing a fashionable suit and a confident expression on his face. The caption above the image reads "He's not to have ten thousand a year, tiddy-fol-lol!" - a reference to the prince's financial situation and his penchant for spending beyond his means. The image also features a caricature of John Bull, a symbol of British national identity, standing behind the prince, holding a money bag and looking disapprovingly at the prince's extravagant lifestyle. The cartoonist, Alfred Bryan, masterfully captures the essence of the time, highlighting the contrast between the prince's lavish lifestyle and the financial concerns of the common man. The print, with its intricate details and vibrant colors, offers a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the life of a royal figure during the 1880s. This charming and witty cartoon remains a popular and intriguing piece of British royal history, offering a unique perspective on the life of Prince Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence and Avondale.
