EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Out in the Cold (litho)" captures a scathing satire of British politics during the 19th century. Created by an anonymous English School artist, this cartoon-like lithograph depicts several Victorian politicians with frozen heads, symbolizing their isolation and political irrelevance. In this satirical drawing, the artist cleverly uses ice and cold imagery to convey the idea that these politicians have been left out in the cold by their peers or constituents. The exaggerated caricatures highlight their individual personalities and political affiliations, making it clear that they are being ridiculed for their actions or beliefs. This piece was originally published on December 25th, 1892, in Truth magazine. It serves as a powerful commentary on the state of British politics at that time. The engraving technique used adds depth and detail to each character's expression, enhancing its impact as a satirical cartoon. "Out in the Cold (litho)" is not just a humorous artwork but also reflects broader themes such as power struggles within Great Britain and Europe. Its inclusion of references to British culture and European Union hints at larger political dynamics prevalent during that era. Bridgeman Images has preserved this historical gem from its private collection for art enthusiasts to appreciate both its artistic merit and its significance as a social commentary on British society during the 19th century.
