"Changeant son cheval borgne pour un aveugle" (1866) is a lithograph by Honoré Daumier. The print is a political cartoon satirizing British politics. It depicts John Bull, a popular personification of Great Britain, riding a blind horse. The horse represents the Conservative party, "Ministère Tory," and John Bull is holding a whip, symbolizing his control over the party. This satirical work highlights Daumier's keen observation of political affairs and his masterful use of caricature to express his opinions.
