Spotprent met Lord Bentinck en Lord Lyndhurst in een bokswedstrijd Possibly 1846 - 1848

This satirical print, "Spotprent met Lord Bentinck en Lord Lyndhurst in een bokswedstrijd," created by John Doyle between 1846 and 1848, depicts Lord Bentinck and Lord Lyndhurst engaged in a boxing match. The print, housed in the Rijksmuseum, uses caricature and humor to comment on contemporary political events. The caption, "A fight, without the Captain, by way of Wind-up," suggests a political power struggle taking place. This humorous depiction of the political scene through boxing is a common theme in Doyle's satirical work, which often targeted British politics and social issues.
