About the Item
Antique Vanity Fair Print 'Shamrock' Sept. 26th, 1901 by Spy – Decorative Lithograph
This is an antique color lithograph from the iconic Vanity Fair magazine, dated September 19th, 1901. It depicts a gentleman titled "Shamrock," illustrated by Leslie Ward, famously known by his pseudonym "Spy." The print showcases the subject in a refined pose, hands in pockets, dressed in formal attire with a distinguished handlebar mustache, typical of the late Victorian and Edwardian fashion.
The subject portrayed is most likely a notable figure associated with Irish heritage or influence, as suggested by the "Shamrock" title and the small flag bearing the shamrock symbol in the upper corner. Vanity Fair caricatures were well-known for depicting prominent societal figures of the time, and this could be a figure recognized for contributions to sport, politics, or social circles.
Vanity Fair prints like these were highly popular during their time, often collected and framed as decorative pieces due to their artistic and cultural significance. The lithograph was published by Vincent Brooks, Day & Son Ltd., a leading British lithographic printing firm. These prints are highly sought after by collectors today for their aesthetic charm and historical context.
This decorative lithograph is perfect for those interested in Edwardian or Victorian-era artwork, classic Vanity Fair caricatures, or seeking a distinguished and historical art piece for home or office decor.
