"Mr Jorrocks Enters Into Handley Cross And Four Others" is a collection of illustrations by the renowned English artist and caricaturist John Leech. Leech, who lived from 1817 to 1864, is celebrated for his contributions to the world of Victorian art, particularly through his work with the satirical magazine Punch. His illustrations are noted for their wit, humor, and keen social commentary, often reflecting the quirks and idiosyncrasies of 19th-century British society.

The collection centers around the character Mr. Jorrocks, a creation of the English novelist R. S. Surtees. Mr. Jorrocks is a comical and endearing figure, a grocer with a passion for fox-hunting, whose adventures and misadventures provide a humorous lens through which to view the social mores and sporting life of the time. Leech's illustrations bring Surtees' character to life with vivid detail and expressive charm, capturing the essence of Mr. Jorrocks' personality and the lively world he inhabits.

His work not only entertains but also provides valuable insights into the cultural and social dynamics of Victorian England.
