EDITORS COMMENTS
This caricature by Tom Hutt depicts the renowned British writer and poet, Rudyard Kipling, in the year 1914. Kipling, born in 1865, was a prolific author and journalist, best known for his works of fiction, including "The Jungle Book" and "Kim." His writing often reflected the political and social climate of the British Empire, earning him both praise and controversy. In this playful portrait, Kipling is shown with a pipe clenched between his teeth and a copy of his collection "Many Inventions" in hand. The caricature style adds a whimsical touch to the image, with Kipling's exaggerated features and the intricate detail of his pipe and the book cover. The patriotic tone is evident in the Union Jack banner draped across the background, reflecting the strong connection between Kipling's work and the British Empire. Tom Hutt's caricature of Kipling offers a glimpse into the personality of this influential literary figure, capturing his distinctive appearance and the spirit of the era. This image is a testament to Kipling's enduring legacy as a writer and poet, whose works continue to be celebrated and enjoyed around the world.
