Victorian Diplomat Caricature – Vanity Fair Statesmen No. 61, 1870
Description:
This original chromolithograph was published in Vanity Fair on August 27, 1870, as part of the Statesmen series. Titled “A superannuated diplomat,” the portrait depicts an elderly diplomatic figure rendered with gentle irony and understated humor. The bowed posture and formal dress convey experience, weariness, and dignity in equal measure.
Early Vanity Fair prints such as this are valued for their refined satirical tone and elegant compositions, making them appealing both as historical documents and as decorative works for traditional interiors.
Condition:
Good original condition with light age toning.
Framing tips:
Use an ivory or pale cream mat with a dark walnut or antique black frame to emphasize the slender silhouette.
