The Prince at Grass and The Prince in Clover
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating hand-coloured etching published by S. W. Fores in 1787, created by the talented artist James Gillray. This satirical cartoon, part of the collection courtesy of the Warden and Scholars of New College, Oxford, offers a scathing critique on various aspects of English society during that time. The image portrays an array of symbolic elements that shed light on the political climate and societal issues prevalent in 18th-century England. A figure wearing a Liberty Cap atop a pike stands prominently, representing freedom and rebellion against oppressive rule. Meanwhile, Lord North, depicted as overweight and disinterested, looks away while chasing funds. The cartoon also highlights the construction of Carlton House and its extravagant nature under the reign of the Prince Regent. The prince himself is portrayed as rotund with feathers adorning his hat, robes flowing extravagantly around him. He is shown receiving money while fleeing from his responsibilities as a reformer. Gillray's sharp wit extends to other figures within the artwork: Lord Thurlow kissing backside obsequiously; sailors fawning over their prince; crony politicians staring blindly at the sun; all symbolizing corruption within British politics. This print serves not only as an artistic masterpiece but also as a powerful commentary on power dynamics and societal flaws during this era. It reminds us that even centuries later, satire remains an effective tool for social criticism and introspection.
