EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a satirical take on Hans Holbein the Younger's iconic portrait of King Henry VIII, created in 1537. The image is part of "The Comic History of England" by Gilbert Abbott A Beckett, featuring witty illustrations by John Leech. Published in London in 1897 by Bradbury, Agnew & Co. , this piece combines elements from both the 16th and 19th centuries. In this caricature, we see King Henry VIII depicted with a humorous twist. Dressed in traditional Tudor attire, he wears a doublet and hose adorned with intricate patterns. His regal fur-trimmed robe adds an air of majesty to his appearance. However, it is the exaggerated features that truly make this portrayal stand out - from his comically large jacket to his elongated limbs. John Leech's artistic interpretation brings humor to the forefront as he pokes fun at the monarch's larger-than-life persona. This playful satire reflects both the artist's wit and social commentary prevalent during Victorian times. Through this photo print, we are transported back to an era where art served as a means for entertainment and political critique alike. It serves as a testament to how historical figures like Henry VIII continue to captivate our imagination even centuries later.
