EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Reverend Bertram Pollock, a prominent figure in Wellington College during the early 20th century. Created by Leslie Matthew Ward, also known as Spy, this colour lithograph captures Pollock's essence with remarkable detail and artistic flair. In this satirical cartoon published in Vanity Fair on October 9th, 1902, we see Pollock depicted in a caricatured form. The exaggerated features and playful composition add an element of humor to the image while conveying a scathing satire underlying its creation. Pollock's position as a reverend at Wellington College is highlighted through his attire and demeanor. His stern expression suggests authority and wisdom, while his clerical robes symbolize his role within the institution. This portrayal not only reflects Pollock's individuality but also serves as commentary on the religious figures of that era. The artist's use of vibrant colors brings life to this satirical drawing, enhancing its visual impact. Through clever strokes and meticulous attention to detail, Ward successfully captures both the physical likeness of Reverend Bertram Pollock and conveys a deeper message about societal norms or expectations. This print offers viewers an opportunity to delve into history through art. It invites us to reflect upon how social commentaries were expressed during that time period and encourages us to consider their relevance even today.
