"Statesman No.092° - Caricature of the Rt.Hon. Russell Gurney" is a caricature by James Tissot, created in 1871. It depicts Russell Gurney, a prominent English lawyer and politician, in a seated pose. The artwork, likely intended for the satirical magazine "Vanity Fair," uses exaggeration and humor to portray Gurney, potentially highlighting his personality or political stance. The use of detailed drawing and color, typical of Tissot's style, adds depth and realism to the caricature, making it a humorous yet insightful commentary on a significant figure of the time.
