Vicky (Victor Weisz), Winston Churchill is Conquering the House
Sunday, 24 December 2017: On 14 March 2018, Sotheby?s London will offer for sale The Political Cartoon Collection of Jeffrey Archer to benefit a number of educational charities. Comprising 240 original artworks, this is one of the most significant specialist collections of original cartoons in private hands.
The collection has been put together over the last 30 years as a joint enterprise between Lord Archer and his close personal friend, the specialist cartoon and illustration art dealer, Chris Beetles. From the first cartoon acquired for the collection in 1986 (a drawing by Ronald Searle showing the public?s reaction to the infamous Graham Sutherland portrait of Winston Churchill), to the last (a recent Matt cartoon of the numbers falling off the front door of No 10 Downing Street), care has been taken to build a comprehensive collection, presenting the best of three centuries of a particularly British art form that seeks to record and satirise the world of politics. |
