The Cabinet Cherubs - an original printed appearance of this cartoon featuring Winston S. Churchill and others from the 22 April 1908 edition of the magazine Punch or The London Charivari

1908réf. 007074London: Punch 1908. This original printed appearance of a Punch cartoon featuring Winston S. Churchill comes from the personal collection of Gary L. Stiles author of Churchill in Punch Unicorn Publishing Group 2022. His book is the first ever effort to definitively catalog describe and contextualize all of the many Punch cartoons featuring Churchill. This cartoon titled "THE CABINET CHERUBS appeared thus on p.134 of the 22 April 1908 issue of Punch. The artist is Bernard Partridge. The cartoon is captioned "After Reynolds". The cartoon depicts the young members of the new Asquith Cabinet - the first of many Cabinets to which Churchill would be appointed. The image is modeled after Joshua Reynolds's painting "A Cherub Head in Different Views" currently at the Tate Britain Acc. No. N00182. The figures are clockwise from lower left Reginald McKenna Winston Churchill Lloyd George Viscount Morley and Sir Edward Grey. Punch or The London Charivari began featuring Churchill cartoons in 1900 when his political career was just beginning. That political career would last two thirds of a century see him occupy Cabinet office during each of the first six decades of the twentieth century carry him twice to the premiership and further still into the annals of history as a preeminent statesman. And throughout that time Punch satirized Churchill in cartoons more than 600 of them the work of more than 50 different artists. It was a near-perfect relationship between satirists and subject. That Churchill was distinctive in both persona and physical appearance helped make him easy to caricature. To his persona and appearance he added myriad additional satirical temptations not just props like his cigars siren suits V-sign and hats but also a variety of ancillary avocations and vocations like polo painting brick-laying and writing. All these were skewered as well. Some Punch cartoons were laudatory some critical and many humorous like the man himself. Nearly always Churchill was distinctly recognizable a larger-than-life character whose presence caricature served only to magnify. Punch unknown

Richard the Third. 'Off with their heads! We will reform 'em later.' "Richard The Third" Colley Cibber - "French" version Act IV. Scene 4." Prime Minister Herbert Asquith's Liberal government introduced the Parliament Act to curb the powers of the House of Lords following the clash between the Commons and Lords over the 1909 People's Budget. Churchill was at 'point' for much of the attack on the Lords. Here the message is: show them no mercy. In Shakespeare's Richard III Catesby is one of the King's ardent supporters.

A SEA-CHANGE - an original printed appearance of this cartoon featuring Winston S. Churchill and others from the 24 July 1912 edition of the magazine Punch or The London Charivari

His book is the first ever effort to definitively catalog describe and contextualize all of the many Punch cartoons featuring Churchill. This cartoon titled "'A SEA-CHANGE appeared thus on p.91 of the 24 July 1912 issue of Punch. The artist is Bernard Partridge. The cartoon is subtitled "'INTO SOMETHING RICH AND STRANGE'". The lengthy caption reads "First Lord of the Admiralty at Earl's Court. 'WELL THINGS HAVE CHANGED SINCE YOUR TIME; BUT OUR LOWER DECK'S AS GOOD AS EVER' Shade of Sir Richard Grenville of the 'Revenge' 'YES; AND I HEAR THEY'RE UNDERPAID AS WELL AS EVER.' First Lord. 'AH! THAT'S ANOTHER CHANGE WE HOPE TO MAKE.'" The issue of increased pay for seamen is notionally discussed with Sir Richard Grenville captain of the Revenge who died in the Battle of Flores in 1591. The point is obviously a dramatization of the perennial privations of seamen as well as a poke at Winston's ambitions for sweeping changes to the British Navy - ambitions which despite the cartoon he largely succeeded in making.

CONVERSATION FOR TWO. - an original printed appearance of this cartoon featuring Winston S. Churchill and Mohandas Gandhi from the 4 March 1931 edition of the magazine Punch or The London Charivari

1931réf. 007155London: Punch 1931. This original printed appearance of a Punch cartoon featuring Winston S. Churchill comes from the personal collection of Gary L. Stiles author of Churchill in Punch Unicorn Publishing Group 2022. His book is the first ever effort to definitively catalog describe and contextualize all of the many Punch cartoons featuring Churchill. This cartoon titled "CONVERSATION FOR TWO." appeared thus on p.239 of the 4 March 1931 issue of Punch. The artist is Bernard Partridge. The cartoon is captioned "Mr. Winston Churchill. 'I HOPE I INTRUDE.'" The First Round Table Conference November 1930-January 1931 convened to consider government reform in India included Mohandas Gandhi and Secretary of State for India William Wedgwood Benn both depicted in this cartoon. Churchill is the only one not in contemporary garb dressed instead in old-fashioned riding clothes perhaps suggesting antiquated views. Clearly he is not an invited or welcome guest to the conversation. In 1931 Churchill had begun what would become a decade spent out of power and out of favor frequently at odds with both his own Conservative Party and prevailing public sentiment. In early 1931 Churchill broke with his Party over the India Bill. Churchill spent formative time as a young 19th century cavalry officer fighting on the northwest Indian frontier about which he would write his first published book. He certainly did not adopt an early progressive attitude toward relinquishing control over the crown jewel of Britain's colonial empire. Nonetheless it is instructive to remember that many of Churchill's dire warnings about Indian independence proved prophetic. Churchill had warned that too swift a British withdrawal from India would lead to bloody civil war and sectarian strife between Hindus and Muslims Hindu domination and destabilizing political balkanization of the subcontinent. All these predictions came to pass and to a considerable extent persist today. Punch or The London Charivari began featuring Churchill cartoons in 1900 when his political career was just beginning. That political career would last two thirds of a century see him occupy Cabinet office during each of the first six decades of the twentieth century carry him twice to the premiership and further still into the annals of history as a preeminent statesman.

ST. WINSTON AND THE BRITISH LION. - an original printed appearance of this cartoon featuring Winston S. Churchill from the 18 April 1928 edition of the magazine Punch or The London Charivari

1928réf. 007150London: Punch 1928. This original printed appearance of a Punch cartoon featuring Winston S. Churchill comes from the personal collection of Gary L. Stiles author of Churchill in Punch Unicorn Publishing Group 2022. His book is the first ever effort to definitively catalog describe and contextualize all of the many Punch cartoons featuring Churchill. This cartoon titled "ST. WINSTON AND THE BRITISH LION." appeared thus on p.435 of the 18 April 1928 issue of Punch. The artist is Bernard Partridge. The cartoon is captioned "MR. PUNCH PRESENTS THE ABOVE CARTOON IN CELEBRATION OF THE FOURTH CENTENARY OF THE DEATH OF ALBRECHT DURER." In the cartoon as the British Lion rests watchfully at Churchill's feet Churchill - then Chancellor of the Exchequer - works diligently on the budget. Of note are the knives and scissors and the hour glass showing time running out. Albrecht Durer 1471-1548 like Churchill a Renaissance man was a German printer and printmaker known to da Vinci and Raphael. When this cartoon was published Churchill was a dozen years and an unrecognizable world away from his wartime premiership - a premiership that saw him become indelibly associated with the British Lion ubiquitous in British heraldry for the better part of a thousand years. The association with Churchills rumbling oratory and implacably steadfast wartime leadership was perhaps inevitable. The iconic photographic portrait of Churchill taken on 30 December 1941 by Yousef Karsh among the most famous photographic images of the twentieth century - came to be known as The Roaring Lion. Years later in remarks on his 80th birthday in 1954 Churchill would remark on his legacy: It was the nation and the race dwelling all round the globe that had the lions heart. I had the luck to be called upon to give the roar. Punch or The London Charivari began featuring Churchill cartoons in 1900 when his political career was just beginning.
