The Loves of the Fox and The Badger, or The Coalition Wedding
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print by Thomas Rowlandson that transports viewers to the political landscape of 18th century Britain. This hand-coloured aquatint showcases an intriguing scene filled with symbolism and wit. The image depicts a coalition wedding between two unlikely partners: Charles James Fox, known as the "Fox" and Lord Frederick North, also called the "Badger". These prominent politicians were key figures in the coalition government at that time. Their union is humorously portrayed amidst a backdrop of chaos and intrigue. Rowlandson's meticulous attention to detail brings this satirical composition to life. The coat of arms proudly displayed above them represents their shared power while hinting at their individual ambitions. A mischievous devil lurks nearby, symbolizing the temptations faced by those in politics. Intriguing elements such as bear baiting and the Eddystone Lighthouse add layers of complexity to this artwork. They represent entertainment and finance respectively, highlighting how these aspects influenced political decisions during that era. "The Loves of the Fox and The Badger" serves as both a historical document and a commentary on power dynamics within British politics. It invites viewers to reflect on themes such as ambition, alliances, and even personal dreams for those involved in governance. This fascinating print can be found at The Metropolitan Museum of Art where it continues to captivate audiences with its rich heritage artistry.
