Description
From the author's extensive collection given to Trinity College in 1996, 105 caricatures, political and social, have been selected that poke fun at the Irish during London's golden age of caricature. Some of them lampoon (or, occasionally, stand up for) celebrated or notorious individuals, among them Edmund Burke, Richard Brinsley Sheridan, the duke of Wellington, John Philpot Curran, Thomas Moore, Viscount Castlereagh and Lady Caroline Lamb. Others target the sturdily built Irish labourers who migrated to London in search of work, and whose undercutting of local wages was much resented. Many prints, too, were published in Dublin, where plagiarism was rife, alleviated occasionally by witty adaptations.

About the Author
As a young Trinity graduate in the late 1960s, Nicholas K. Robinson drew political cartoons under the pen name Nick, and started to study and collect fine impressions of caricatures with original colouring. His pioneering work, Edmund Burke: a life in caricature, was published by Yale University Press in 1996.
