About This Book

A curated selection of satirical cartoons re-rendered and presented with a brief introduction and concise annotations by the artist. The plates use caricature, visual puns, and topical pastiche to critique parliamentary scandals, civic disputes, public commissions, and notable public figures, shifting between single-panel gags and recurring motifs. Explanatory notes accompany each image to clarify local allusions and the cartoonist’s intent, so the sequence functions both as humorous commentary on contemporary public life and as an organized record of editorial opinion.
