'Dressing the Window', 1886. The new Conservative Prime Minister, Lord Salisbury, decides upon the new shop window. He is being shown a bolt of Irish Policy by his young Chancellor of the Exchequer, Lord Randolph Churchill. It was in fact Gladstone's policy on Ireland that had brought his Liberal government down, so Salisbury decides to leave this contentious matter in abeyance, for the moment. From "Punch, or the London Charivari", August 21, 1886.
