Original – The Plumb-pudding in Danger (1805), showing the world being carved up into spheres of influence between Pitt and Napoleon. Martin Rowson deems it "probably the most famous political cartoon of all time -it has been stolen over and over and over again by cartoonists ever since."

Reason: Interesting and important historical political cartoon. Good quality.

Support. I hadn't heard of this cartoon prior so I'll take your word for it being the most famous political cartoon of all time. As Adam said, I agree it could be a bit sharper, but the detail is there. Ðiliff «» (Talk) 11:41, 18 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
