EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Nothing in the Papers!, 1871" we witness a moment of frustration and exasperation captured by artists Joseph Swain and John Tenniel. The image depicts Mr Punch, a well-known character from the satirical magazine Punch, stamping and kicking newspapers in anger. It is evident that he is struggling to find an interesting story to highlight in the journal's main cartoon. The year was 1871, Parliament was still in recess, leaving journalists with little material to report on. This lack of news has clearly pushed Mr Punch into a sulking tantrum as he searches for something meaty to capture readers' attention. Swain's expert engraving skills bring out every detail of Mr Punch's angry expression and forceful actions. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth to the scene, emphasizing the intensity of his emotions. This print serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by journalists during that era when news sources were limited. It also showcases how satire played an essential role in highlighting societal issues through cartoons like those found in Punch. As we gaze upon this heritage image partnership between Swain and Tenniel, we are transported back to the 19th century, where men like Mr Punch struggled with finding compelling stories amidst political recesses.
