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
