A caricature of James Delahunty M.P. by James Tissot, published in *Vanity Fair* magazine in 1872. The lithograph depicts the Irish politician in a full-length pose, wearing a black suit and top hat.
This caricature of James Delahunty M.P. is by James Tissot (1836-1902), a French artist who spent much of his career in Britain. It was published in *Vanity Fair* magazine on 3 August 1872, as part of the 'Statesmen' series. Tissot was one of several artists who contributed caricatures to the magazine, which was known for its satirical depictions of prominent figures of the day. These caricatures offer a glimpse into the social and political climate of the late 19th century. James Delahunty (1808-1890) was an Irish politician and Member of Parliament for Waterford City. The lithograph presents Delahunty in a full-length pose, wearing a black suit, waistcoat, and top hat. His hands are on his hips, and he holds a rolled document in his left hand. The figure is set against a plain background, typical of *Vanity Fair* caricatures, which allowed the focus to remain on the exaggerated features and attire of the subject. The print is inscribed with the title 'Currency' below the image, a reference to Delahunty's business interests.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
