EDITORS COMMENTS
The "Comic map of Europe" by Frederick Rose, created around 1870, is a satirical and politically charged lithograph that offers a humorous take on the territorial ambitions and power dynamics of European nations during that time. This print, part of a private collection, showcases the wit and creativity of the English School in the 19th century. In this whimsical depiction, England takes center stage as she forgets about Ireland but still maintains control over it. Spain and Portugal lazily smoke away while France attempts to overthrow Prussia, who confidently advances towards Holland and Austria. Italy advises Bismark to stay out of their affairs while Corsica and Sardinia find amusement in it all. Denmark hopes for the recovery of Holstein, Turkey slowly awakens from its smoky haze, Sweden crouches like a panther ready to pounce, and Russia appears as a beggar desperately seeking anything to fill his basket. This comic map not only serves as an artistic representation but also reflects the political tensions prevalent during this period. It highlights each nation's aspirations through caricatured imagery with clever symbolism woven throughout. With its intricate details and playful commentary on European politics at that time, this lithograph provides viewers with both entertainment and insight into historical events.
