The Frantic Footman, who has had Warning, 1859
The Frantic Footman, who has had Warning, 1859. The defeat of Disraelis Reform Bill in March 1862 brought down Lord Derbys Conservative Government. Here, Derby is shown wearing the clothes of a servant. He is in the butlers pantry and his shoes show him to be an indoor servant - a house servant. He has his left foot on the broken plate of reform and is just about to dash to the ground the engraved decanter of dissolution. He is the image of the disgruntled servant who, given notice, takes his revenge whilst he may on the treasured property of his employers. From Punch, or the London Charivari, April 16, 1859

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "The Frantic Footman, who has had Warning, 1859" offers a satirical glimpse into the political turmoil of the 19th century. Depicting Lord Derby, the Prime Minister at the time, disguised as a servant in his butler's pantry, this caricature captures his frustration and anger following the defeat of Disraeli's Reform Bill. Lord Derby is portrayed wearing servant attire - breeches and waistcoat - signifying his role as an indoor house servant. With one foot firmly planted on a broken plate symbolizing reform and holding an engraved decanter labeled "dissolution" he prepares to unleash his revenge upon his employers' treasured property. The image brilliantly conveys Lord Derby's discontentment with politics through clever symbolism. His disgruntled expression reflects the frustrations felt by many politicians when their efforts are thwarted. The cartoonist masterfully uses satire to highlight how even those in positions of power can be reduced to servants when faced with defeat. "The Frantic Footman" serves as a reminder that political battles have long been fought within corridors of power. It showcases both Benjamin Disraeli's determination for reform and Lord Derby's desperation to maintain control over government affairs. As we gaze upon this intriguing heritage image from April 16,1859 issue of Punch magazine, we are transported back in time to witness the intricate dynamics between politicians during this transformative period in history.
