Published on December 10, 1870, depicting Charles Haddon Spurgeon (19th June 1834 – 31st January 1892), an English Particular Baptist preacher. Spurgeon remains highly influential among Christians of various denominations, to some of whom he is known as the "Prince of Preachers." He was a strong figure in the Reformed Baptist tradition, defending the 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith, and opposing the liberal and pragmatic theological tendencies in the Church of his day.

These caricatures, drawn by renowned artists, captured the essence of their subjects with a mix of humor, satire, and artistry. .
