政治家。《金克斯的宝贝》。爱德华·詹金斯先生。1878年8月31日
1878
Meet Edward Jenkins, cheekily labeled 'Ginx's Baby' by Vanity Fair in this 1878 caricature. The artist 'Spy' (Leslie Matthew Ward) exaggerated the politician's profile into a giant, bald dome with wispy red hair, mocking his appearance while referencing his own hit satirical novel about a bureaucratic orphan. The book was so popular that the magazine ignored his real name for the title, creating a classic piece of Victorian political satire where your biggest claim to fame became your permanent nickname.
