'Political Snapshots' begins with those Georgian satirists, notably Sayers, Gillray, Rowlandson, Newton and the Cruikshanks, whose work visually illuminated the personalities and the events in what became a 'Golden Age of Satire', showcasing their work to a print hungry public. As Georgians gave way to Victorians, graphic imagery was tempered by taste that hosted a watershed in comic art. The first allegorical cartoons appearing in Punch and other journals entertained a classless culture. Cartooning had its second 'Golden Age' when war came in 1914, which resulted in a deluge of cartoons that continued well into the inter-war years accelerated by the rise of fascism.
