The Fall of Icarus, 1834. Creator: John Doyle
The Fall of Icarus, 1834. Lord Brougham portrayed as Icarus of Greek myth, who flew too close to the Sun with wings made of wax. The Sun contains the face of King William IV, suggesting that recent speeches of Broughams implied too great a degree of familiarity with the monarch. The melting wings are lettered " Edinburgh Review, " " Society of Useful Knowledge, " " Penny Encyclopaedia, " " Morning Chronicle, " and " Globe, " all journals to which the Chancellor contributed articles praising the king. British politician Henry Brougham (1778-1868) served as Lord High Chancellor from 1830 to 1834. Satirical cartoon by H.B. (John Doyle). [Thomas McLean, London, 1834]
