"Caricature of the Boer War from L'Assiette au Beurre, 28th September 1901" is a satirical illustration by French artist Jean Veber, published in the influential French satirical magazine L'Assiette au Beurre. The caricature captures the essence of the public sentiment and political commentary surrounding the Second Boer War (1899-1902), a conflict fought between the British Empire and two Boer states, the South African Republic and the Orange Free State, over the Empire's influence in South Africa.

Jean Veber, known for his sharp and often biting satirical works, utilized his artistic prowess to comment on the brutality and the imperialistic nature of the war. The illustration, typical of Veber's style, likely features exaggerated figures and scenes that encapsulate the folly and horror of the conflict, reflecting the anti-war and anti-imperialist sentiments that were prevalent among certain segments of the French public at the time.

Published on the 28th of September 1901, during the latter stages of the war, this caricature serves as a historical artifact that provides insight into contemporary European attitudes towards the Boer War specifically, and towards colonialism and military aggression in general. L'Assiette au Beurre was renowned for its critical and often controversial depictions of political and social issues, and Veber's contribution to the magazine through this caricature would have been part of a larger discourse on the events of the day, conveyed through the magazine's distinctively acerbic artistic lens.

The Boer War caricature by Jean Veber is an example of the important role political cartoons and satirical art play in shaping and reflecting public opinion, as well as the way they document the cultural and political climate of a particular era. As a piece of historical and artistic significance, it offers a visual critique and a poignant reminder of the complexities and consequences of colonial ambitions at the turn of the 20th century.
