'Easter Eggs', 1880. Artist: Joseph Swain
'Easter Eggs', 1880. Britannia in the guise of a plump mother hen is shown sitting on her clutch of eggs. These are labelled with all of the country's major political factions. In front of her is the reference to the forthcoming General Election of 1880, where the Conservatives would be endeavouring to retain their majority. From Punch, or the London Charivari, April 3, 1880.
