EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful caricature captures the camaraderie and light-heartedness of two esteemed legal figures of the Victorian era: Sir Hardinge Stanley Giffard, 1st Earl of Halsbury (1823-1921), and John Charles Frederick Sigismund Day QC (1826-1908). Drawn in 1882, the image finds the two men, both prominent barristers and future luminaries of the English legal profession, taking a momentary break from their rigorous work. Sir Hardinge Giffard, later to become Lord Chancellor, is depicted with his characteristic bushy whiskers, wig, and formal attire, holding a glass of whisky in one hand and a biscuit in the other. His expression exudes a sense of amusement and relaxation, contrasting the serious demeanor he was known for in court. John Charles Day, wearing a similar wig and whiskers, is seen in the background, reaching for a biscuit with a mischievous grin on his face. The two men's shared laughter and easy companionship are palpable, revealing a side of these legal titans that was not often seen in public. The setting, with its ornate background and elegant table setting, adds to the overall sense of refinement and sophistication. The caricature, created by an unknown artist, offers a glimpse into the personal lives of these influential figures, humanizing them and showcasing their shared bond as colleagues in the legal profession. This image is a testament to the rich history of the legal world in the 1880s and the camaraderie that exists even amidst the most demanding of professions. The caricature, by Terry Parker, is available for licensing through Mary Evans Picture Library.
