"News From Calabria! Capture Of Buenos Ayres!" is a satirical print by the British caricaturist and printmaker James Gillray, produced in 1806. Known for his sharp wit and often biting social commentary, Gillray's work frequently targeted political figures and events of his time, and this particular print is no exception. The artwork is a visual commentary on the British military expeditions of the early 19th century, specifically the British invasions of the Río de la Plata, which included an attempt to capture Buenos Aires in present-day Argentina.

The print likely reflects the public's reaction to the news from the battlefronts, capturing the mix of emotions from surprise to concern that would have accompanied reports of such distant military engagements. Gillray's style, characterized by exaggerated features and dramatic scenarios, would have served to both entertain and provoke thought among viewers of his work.

As with many of Gillray's prints, "News From Calabria! Capture Of Buenos Ayres!" would have been published by Hannah Humphrey, with whom Gillray had a close professional relationship. The print would have been circulated among the British public, contributing to the political discourse of the time. It serves as an example of the role of visual satire in shaping public opinion and provides insight into the British perspective on international affairs during the Napoleonic Wars.

The exact details of the print, such as its dimensions, medium, and the specifics of its content and symbolism, would require further research for a more comprehensive description. As a historical artifact, the print is an important piece of the puzzle in understanding the political climate of early 19th-century Britain and the public's engagement with the news of military actions abroad.
