| Description |
Caricature of William Ewart Gladstone (left) and William Vernon Harcourt. Part of a 3-page set "Mixed Political Wares". Accompanying biography read "He [Gladstone] has been making political speeches for two generations; yet, since he defended the slaveowners sixty years ago he has scarce taken up a cause that he has not ruined, nor advocated scarce a principle that he has not presently thrown overboard. Chief of 'Babble's' associates is one 'Bluster', who is very proud of his blood, boasting himself to be a Scion of a Royal House. But there is a great difference between the persuasiveness of 'Babble' and the bullying of 'Bluster'; and though he be not without ability he will never suffice to hold together the mixed and unregenerate Party that has just been collected by the 'Babble'". |
