About this work
A lithographic caricature titled Poking the Old Lion, attributed to John Doyle and dated 1847. A man in a cap and jacket prods a caged lion with a long pole labelled Spanish Marriages and Cracow, while a couple in period dress watches. A sign on the cage reads Leo Britannicus and the lion's paw rests on a tag reading Free Trade. A speech bubble above reads that the lion has grown so tame it requires a great deal of poking to rouse him.
