拍品专文

Israel Zangwill (1964-1926), the Zionist Jewish leader and novelist, was a friend of Sickert's first wife. The present work was a cartoon for Vanity Fair, published on 25 February 1897, called A Child of the Ghetto after the title of Zangwill's story set in the Venetian ghetto, which had just been published.

There is an oil portrait of Israel Zangwill by Sickert in the National Galleries of Scotland, Edinburgh.
