Big Ben

(George Bentinck, Conservative Politician, Member of Parliament, Justice of Peace & Deputy Lieutenant of Norfolk)

Issued 1871, London, by Vanity Fair

Art by James Tissot or "Coide"

An attractive original old vintage antique color lithograph caricature.

Printed in the late 19th century on paper which has gently age toned as always, but which remains sound, clean, & well preserved.

A picture is worth a thousand words. The zoomable scan is a major part of the item description. Please examine closely, as what you see is what we will send you. [note: we grade very conservatively and always seek to disclose any noteworthy flaws ].

A lovely image worthy of display which is not often seen.

In Good to Good+ or better condition, normal uniform light age toning to sheet as typical, some edge wear, as well as a some trivial light age staining primarily in the margins, overall the image is clean, well preserved and very attractive

A little known and vivid printed image which any collector, dealer, institution or person of artistic taste would be happy to own.

Sheet measures c.  13 7/8" H x  9 1/8" W.
