EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the mischievous charm of Peter R.G. Buchanan, the renowned British caricaturist who went by the pseudonym 'The Tout.' Buchanan's artistic talent was showcased primarily in the pages of The Tatler and The Bystander magazines during the 1920s and 30s, where his caricatures of horse racing society brought wit and humor to the readers. The Tout's cartoons were known for their keen observation and satirical commentary on the social scene, often poking fun at the eccentricities and follies of the elite. Buchanan's ability to capture the essence of his subjects with a few deft strokes of his pen made him a beloved figure in the world of British art and satire. In May 1931, Buchanan's work was exhibited at the prestigious Walker Galleries in New Bond Street, London. This portrait, published in The Tatler at the time of the exhibition, offers a glimpse into the charismatic personality of the artist himself. Buchanan's twinkling eyes and playful expression convey a sense of mischief and fun, reflecting the spirit of his work. As a master of the caricature, Buchanan's influence on the art world and popular culture of his time cannot be overstated. His work continues to be celebrated for its ability to capture the essence of a moment in time and the human condition with humor and insight. This portrait serves as a fitting tribute to a truly remarkable artist and a testament to the enduring power of satire and wit.
