EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating etching and engraving titled "Political Mathematicians Shaking the Broadbottom d Hemisphere" by James Gillray takes us back to the year 1807, offering a glimpse into the political landscape of that time. Published by Hannah Humphrey, this artwork measures 32.2x42.6 cm and is now housed in the collection of New College, Oxford. In this satirical masterpiece, we witness a peculiar gathering known as the Ministry of All Talents (1806-07), depicted as political mathematicians shaking up the world. The scene unfolds at a lavish banquet where members of radical opposition attempt to topple the government using unorthodox methods. Amongst them are Sir Francis Burdett, John Horne Tooke, and William Cobbett who conspire with cunning determination while feasting on a sumptuous meal. They dine in breeches belonging to Charles James Fox (1749-1806), their recently deceased ally whose ghost hovers above them. Meanwhile, Britannia weeps for her beloved country as she observes from afar through her telescope. The French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte looms ominously in the background, symbolizing an imminent invasion that threatens England's shores. This intricate composition brims with symbolism: scissors representing division and cutting ties; tape measures alluding to excessive indulgence; vermin scavenging beneath tables signifying corruption within politics; and ships along the coastline hinting at maritime power struggles. Gillray's masterful use of caricature captures both humor and critique as he portrays these political figures engaged in their calculated game of power. Through his artistry, he invites viewers to reflect upon society's excesses while highlighting its vulnerability during times of great change.
