Image Irrelevant
Dear Editors,
I fail to see the relevance of the well-known 1805 print from the National Portrait Gallery’s collection, The Plum Pudding in Danger, in Peter Jukes’ Editorial in the August 2025 edition (‘Carving Up A Baked World’, 17 July 2025), which seeks to warn of the implied dangers of modern international politics. The world has changed so dramatically in the last 200 years since the cartoon’s publication that a more contemporary image would surely have been more appropriate? History never repeats itself.
