"The Great Exhibition 'Wot is to Be'" is a satirical cartoon by George Augustus Sala, created in 1850. The artwork depicts a series of humorous scenes that satirize the upcoming Great Exhibition in London. It utilizes caricatures to poke fun at the innovations and popular products of the time, such as gutta-percha, Holloway's Pills, and English Arts and Manufactures. This is a great example of British social commentary through political satire.
