EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon from the 1880s, published on January 31, 1885, depicts an intriguing encounter between two prominent figures of the Victorian cultural scene: Mr. Louis Engel, a German musician and music critic, and Mr. Alexander Henderson, a theatre owner and director. The image, titled "I'll have my bond!", is a humorous reference to the famous line spoken by Shylock in Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice. In this illustration, Engel and Henderson are shown in the midst of a heated argument over a contract dispute. Engel, with a scowl on his face and a contract in hand, stands before Henderson, who is seated at a table covered in papers and scales, symbolizing the balance of justice. The tension between the two men is palpable, with Engel brandishing a knife, reminiscent of Shylock's infamous demand for a pound of flesh. The cartoon's caption, "entracte, entr'acte, acte," suggests that this scene is taking place during the intermission of a theatrical performance, adding to the sense of drama and intrigue. The late Victorian era, in which this image was created, was a time of great cultural and artistic innovation, and this cartoon offers a fascinating glimpse into the personalities and dynamics of some of the key figures of the period. Engel and Henderson's disagreement may have been based on a real-life dispute, or it may have been purely fictional, created for the purpose of entertainment. Regardless, this cartoon remains a testament to the rich cultural landscape of the late 19th century and the enduring power of Shakespeare's classic works to inspire and captivate audiences.
