Details |
Cartoon, Miss Britannia's Next New Doll -- a satirical comment on the popularity of the Shah of Persia, at the time making a tour of the European continent. This is seen to be taking attention away from other prominent figures such as William Gladstone, Liberal Prime Minister, seen here as a discarded doll sitting on a chair, and the Tichborne Claimant, lying on the floor to the right.
