EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the famous engraving of W H Smith, created by Frederick Waddy in the late 19th century. The image captures the essence of a prominent and well-known figure from that era. W H Smith's portrait is part of a collection called Cartoon Portraits and Biographical Sketches of Men of the Day, which was published in 1873. Waddy's artistic talent shines through in this perceptive depiction, as he skillfully combines elements of caricature and satire to create a truly remarkable piece. The satirical cartoon portrays W H Smith amidst iconic symbols such as Big Ben and Westminster, highlighting his significance within Victorian politics. The artist's scathing satire brings out both the common traits shared by men of power during that time period and their individual characters. This particular engraving offers an insightful glimpse into the world of influential politicians and celebrities who shaped society during the 19th century. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this historical artwork, allowing us to appreciate its intricate details even today. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness not only W H Smith himself but also gain a deeper understanding of the political landscape and societal norms prevalent during his era.
