EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant lithograph print titled "Ways and Means, 1871" captures the essence of John George Dodson, a prominent British Liberal politician of the 19th century. Created by Coide for Vanity Fair on December 16,1871, this caricature showcases Dodson's distinctive Victorian style with his impressive whiskers and distinguished presence. Dodson's political career was marked by significant achievements. Serving as MP for East Sussex, Chester, and Scarborough, he held various ministerial offices in Gladstone's administrations. Between 1865 and 1872, Dodson served as Chairman of Ways and Means (Deputy Speaker of the House of Commons), showcasing his expertise in parliamentary affairs. In recognition of his contributions to public service, Dodson was raised to the peerage as the first Baron Monk Bretton in 1884. Additionally, from 1889 to 1892, he became the inaugural Chairman of the East Sussex County Council. Coide skillfully portrays Dodson's character through this colorful portrait. The artist captures both his political stature and individuality within this striking image. This print serves not only as a historical artifact but also as a testament to Dodson's enduring legacy within British politics. As we admire this artwork by Coide depicting John George Dodson - statesman extraordinaire - we are reminded of an era when politicians were larger than life figures who shaped nations with their wit and wisdom.
