Bulbo [Max Beerbohm] "Though it is an arguable point whether he be, as it was once reputed, the most intellectual, he remains, beyond dispute, the dressiest, of contemporary British dramatists." [Arthur Wing Pinero with G.B. Shaw in background]

London: Vanity Fair, February 1, 1906. 12 3/8 x 7 7/8 (image). Chromolithograph. 

From January 30, 1869 until February 5, 1914, Vanity Fair, a weekly Society magazine of social, literary and political content, was published to the delight of Victorian and then Edwardian England. Most popular of its features were the wonderful full page caricatures of famous men and women of the day, prints that are Vanity Fair's great legacy. These were drawn by such popular artists as Spy (Leslie Ward) and Ape (Carlo Pellegrini), amongst others. With subjects ranging from the political to the religious, Americans to Asians, these prints remain one of the most popular of prints from that bygone era. This perceptive and witty portrait is a fine specimen from this humorous and urbane magazine.

We have many more prints from this series. Please call or email for more information.
