EDITORS COMMENTS
This satirical cartoon print captures the essence of Michael Thomas Bass, a prominent English brewer and politician known for his contributions to improving working and living conditions for workers in the 19th century. The caricature by 'Ape' (Carlo Pellegrini) from "Vanity Fair" depicts Bass with his hands casually tucked into his pockets, exuding confidence and authority.
Bass, the grandson of the founder of Bass Brewery in Burton-on-Trent, Staffordshire, served as a Liberal Member of Parliament for Derby from 1843 to 1883. His dedication to social reform and advocacy for labor rights made him a respected figure in British politics during his time.
In this portrait, Bass is portrayed with sideburns and grey hair, wearing a top hat and a full suit that symbolize his status as a member of parliament. His stoic expression suggests determination and leadership qualities that were instrumental in shaping policies that benefited the working class.
This chromolithograph not only captures Bass's likeness but also serves as a reminder of his legacy as a progressive thinker who strived to make positive changes in society. Through this artwork, we are reminded of the importance of advocating for social justice and equality for all individuals.
