THE SIBYLLINE BOOKS Fate of Sibyl: “Once I offered you peace with the remnant of your naval strength. Now I offer you peace while you still have an army! If I should have to come again—-” + Russo-Japanese War, (1904–05), military conflict in which a victorious Japan forced Russia to abandon its expansionist policy in East Asia, thereby becoming the first Asian power in modern times to defeat a European power. + Depicts Czar Nicholas attired in royal robes, sitting on a throne shrinking away from the standing figure of the Cumaean Sibyl. + Shows Czar Nicholas being visited by Fate, one of the Sibyls. She warns Nicholas this is the second time she has offered him a way to conclude peace. The cartoon suggests the political unrest in Russia is such that, if Czar Nicholas still refuses to accept reality and begin negotiations to end the war, it will be disastrous for the Romanovs.Over 4,500 Punch cartoons listed for sale (store category ”Punch cartoons”) — humor, satire and propaganda; combine orders and save shipping charges.

Punch, a magazine of humor and satire, ran from 1841-2002. A very British institution renowned internationally for its wit and irreverence, it helped to coin the term ”cartoon” in its modern sense as a humorous illustration. Punch was the world’s most celebrated magazine of wit and satire. From its early years as a campaigner for social justice to its transformation into national icon, Punch played a central role in the formation of British identity — and how the rest of the world saw the British nation. In its formative years Punch combined humors, illustration and political debate with a fresh and radical audacity. During its heyday in the late 1800s, it reflected the conservative views of the growing middle-classes and copies of it could be found in the libraries of diplomats, cabinet ministers and even royalty. In the Western world, Punch played a significant role in the development of satire. In the world of illustration, it practically revolutionized it. Over the decades as it charted the interests, concerns and frustrations of the country and today it stands as an invaluable source of cartoon art, satire, but as primary source material for historians.
