EDITORS COMMENTS
In this satirical 19th-century engraving titled "Banting in the Yeomanry, 1865" artist Charles Samuel Keene captures a comical moment within the military ranks. The scene depicts a large Yeomanry Officer confronting his captain about the size of his jacket. With a hint of exaggeration, the Troop-Sergeant Major humorously states, "It comes to this, Captain, A Mun E ther Hev a New Jacket or Knock Off One O My Meals!". The image is rich with symbolism and social commentary. The officer's prominent stomach represents excess and indulgence while highlighting the stark contrast between his privileged position and those struggling to make ends meet. By threatening to forego one meal if he doesn't receive a larger jacket, he highlights both his own gluttony and the economic disparities prevalent at that time. Keene's use of black and white adds depth to this satire by emphasizing contrasts between light and shadow. Through clever caricature techniques, he portrays exaggerated features on both characters' faces, enhancing their personalities. This print from Punch magazine reflects societal issues through humor during an era marked by significant political changes in Britain. It serves as a reminder that even within esteemed institutions like the military, there were individuals who exploited their positions for personal gain while others suffered hardships. Overall, Keene's artwork provides us with an amusing glimpse into historical attitudes towards wealth inequality and excess during the late 19th century.
