EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph, titled "The Tory Bloodhound," features the 1st Marquess of Abergavenny, William Nevill (1826-1915), an English peer known for his prominent political career as a Tory. The image, published in Vanity Fair in 1875, was captured by the renowned Italian-born British caricaturist Carlo Pellegrini, also known as "Ape." The Marquess of Abergavenny wears an elegant suit and a serious expression, but the true focus of the image is the bloodhound at his feet. The dog, with its intense gaze and alert posture, symbolizes the Marquess's unwavering dedication and tenacity in his political pursuits. The Tory Party, to which the Marquess belonged, was known for its strong and unyielding stance on issues, much like the determined nature of a bloodhound on the trail of its prey. The use of a bloodhound as a symbol for the Tory Party was not an uncommon one during this time period. The party's supporters often employed such imagery to emphasize their unwavering commitment to their cause and their ability to track down and root out their political opponents. This photograph, with its clever use of symbolism and witty commentary, provides a fascinating glimpse into the political climate of the late 19th century in England. It also showcases the skill and talent of Carlo Pellegrini, who expertly captured the essence of both the Marquess and the Tory Party in this memorable and intriguing image.
