Title: Set of 3 Vanity Fair Prints – Aristocracy Society Military 1883 : A characterful and visually engaging set of three original Vanity Fair chromolithographs from 1883, drawn by Leslie Ward (“Spy”) and printed by Vincent Brooks, Day & Son, London. This group brings together aristocracy, high society, and military prestige—three pillars of late Victorian Britain. The set includes: “The affable Earl” – likely George Sutherland-Leveson-Gower, 3rd Duke of Sutherland, a prominent aristocrat known for his wealth, influence, and public presence “The Baroness Burdett-Coutts” – Angela Burdett-Coutts, one of the richest women in Britain and a celebrated philanthropist, widely admired for her charitable work “Smartness” – a British army officer, representing the fashionable and disciplined image of the Victorian military elite Together, these portraits reflect the hierarchy and culture of the British elite, from landed aristocracy and influential society figures to the polished officer class. Vanity Fair caricatures are celebrated for capturing both likeness and personality—subtle exaggeration combined with remarkable elegance and insight into character. The mix of a narrative domestic interior (Burdett-Coutts) with strong full-length caricatures creates a well-balanced and decorative set suitable for both classic and contemporary interiors. Condition: Very good overall with light age toning and minor foxing. Occasional light edge wear consistent with age. Colors remain fresh and attractive. Framing tips: Best presented in matching dark wood frames with warm ivory mats. Works particularly well as a refined three-piece wall arrangement.
