Framed Print of Sketches in the Lobby of the House of Commons, 1881. Creator: Unknown
Sketches in the Lobby of the House of Commons, [Palace of Westminster], 1881. A good deal of Human Nature is to be observed in the Lobby of the House of Commons...[Our sketches show] a few of the everyday incidents observable in and about the Lobby that are lightly touched upon by an Artist whose proneness to drop into caricature may, perhaps, be excused. Artisan-delegates desirous of interviewing one or the other of the estimable working-class members are stopped, as sketched in the first group, by one of the efficient subordinates of Inspector Denning, and have to wait in the outer Lobby till Policeman X has ascertained, by calling through a tube, whether the hon. member is in the House. In the inner Lobby itself our Artist comes across characteristic parties of clergymen, agriculturists, and Irishmen, whom he has facetiously depicted interviewing members. Here, too, are to be recognised well-known officials of the House, to whom, through the long watches of the night, the Lobby may well seem haunted by ghosts of the great men who have made history in the House of Commons'. From "Illustrated London News", 1881. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
