Metal Prints from Mary Evans Picture Library
Cartoon, The Working-Man, Royal Westminster Exhibition
Cartoon, The Working-Man, from the Royal Westminster Exhibition. A satire on the Royal Academy Exhibition, where many paintings depicted working men. The four spoof portraits here imagine how four different politicians would portray the working man -- for John Bright he is pure and angelic, for Edward Horsman he is a threat, both to the monarchy and to himself, for W E Forster he is a studious self-improver, and for Robert Lowe he is a passive drunkard. Date: 1865

EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon, titled "The Working-Man," is a satirical commentary on the Royal Academy Exhibition of 1865, where numerous paintings depicted working men. In this intriguing print, four spoof portraits offer a humorous take on how four prominent politicians of the time would depict the working man. John Bright's portrait presents the working man in a pure and angelic light, reflecting his liberal and progressive views. Edward Horsman, on the other hand, portrays the working man as a threat, both to the monarchy and to himself, reflecting his reactionary attitude and prejudice. William E. Forster's depiction of the working man is that of a studious self-improver, reflecting his belief in the importance of education and personal growth. Robert Lowe, however, portrays the working man as a passive drunkard, reflecting his conservative views and negative opinion of the working class. This cartoon, created in 1865 during the Victorian era, offers a fascinating insight into the political attitudes and opinions of the time towards the working class. The idealized and negative depictions of the working man in the print serve as a reminder of the complex and often contradictory views that existed during the 19th century regarding the role and worth of the working class in society.
