This vibrant and captivating print showcases a colour lithograph of HRH The Duke of Connaught, created by the talented artist Leslie Matthew Ward, also known as Spy. This satirical cartoon was originally published in Vanity Fair on 17th June 1876, portraying the Duke as a future Commander-in-Chief. In this scathing satire, Ward skillfully captures the essence of the Duke's character through exaggerated features and playful caricature.
