EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the satirical essence of Leslie Matthew Ward's caricature, "Chang Ta-Jen (colour litho)". Created in 1903 for Vanity Fair magazine, this cartoon is a scathing satire that humorously depicts Chang Ta-Jen, a prominent figure from China who visited London during that time. The image portrays Chang Ta-Jen with exaggerated features and comical elements, highlighting the artist's talent for capturing personality through caricature. The vibrant colors used in the lithograph add to its visual appeal and make it an eye-catching piece of art. Ward's work was known for its sharp wit and social commentary, often poking fun at influential figures of his era. In this particular piece, he cleverly combines cultural stereotypes with political undertones to create a thought-provoking image. "Chang Ta-Jen (colour litho)" serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece. It offers us a glimpse into the perceptions and prejudices prevalent during that period while showcasing Ward's skillful technique as an illustrator. This print is part of a private collection housed by Bridgeman Images. Its inclusion in Look and Learn / Peter Jackson Collection further emphasizes its significance as an important artwork worth preserving for future generations to appreciate.
