"The Rights of Man or Tommy Paine the little American Taylor taking the Measure of the Crown for a new Pair of Revolution Breeches" is a satirical print by the renowned British caricaturist James Gillray, created in 1791 during a period of political upheaval and debate. The etching and aquatint, which is often simply referred to as "The Rights of Man," serves as a biting critique of Thomas Paine and his influential pamphlet "The Rights of Man," which advocated for democratic government and the overthrow of the British monarchy.

In this caricature, Gillray portrays Paine, who is diminutively nicknamed "Tommy Paine the little American Taylor," as a tailor measuring the King's crown, symbolizing Paine's intent to reshape the British political system. The image is rich with allegory and visual puns, reflecting the artist's opposition to Paine's radical ideas and the French Revolution, which had inspired many reformists in Britain.

Gillray's work is characterized by its intricate detail, sharp wit, and its capacity to capture and influence public opinion. "The Rights of Man" is no exception, encapsulating the fears and criticisms of those who opposed revolutionary change and the spread of republican ideas. The print is a significant example of the role of art in political discourse, offering insight into the ideological battles of the late 18th century.

As a piece of historical and artistic significance, the print is held in various collections and has been the subject of scholarly analysis. It not only reflects Gillray's artistic skill and political leanings but also serves as a window into the contentious political climate of the time, making it a valuable resource for understanding the interplay between art, politics, and society in the age of revolutions.
