Légende
'The Real Cap of Liberty', 1871. The British lion asks the ass What can that Cap Promise, that My Crown doesn't Perform? Eh, Stoopid? The majestic British Lion contemptuously flicks off the republican hat of the working-class ass. This could be a reaction to the recent critical illness of the Prince of Wales. A growing disaffection with the Royal family had been displaced by a wave of affection and support, and his recovery sparked national thanksgiving. From Punch, or the London Charivari, December 30, 1871.
