"The Drill" is a satirical print by John Doyle, possibly dated 1846. This lithograph depicts a military drill scene, with a single, imposing figure in the foreground facing a line of soldiers. The print highlights the contrasting figures and the absurdity of military training, employing humor to comment on social issues. It is a fine example of 19th-century British caricature, showcasing Doyle's keen eye for social commentary and his ability to capture the essence of a scene with simple, yet effective, lines.
