This satirical cartoon, "The Pas de Vaccination," created by John Doyle in the mid-19th century, is a commentary on the political climate in England. The image depicts a group of dancers, representing various political figures, with a leading figure who appears to be advocating for vaccination, a controversial topic in England at the time. This black and white lithograph, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, utilizes visual humor to make a statement about the political landscape, making it a valuable piece for understanding the social and political currents of the Victorian era.
