"Mr. Jorrocks Come Help! I Say-" is an illustration by the renowned British artist and caricaturist John Leech. John Leech, born on August 29, 1817, and passing on October 29, 1864, was a prominent figure in the world of Victorian art, particularly known for his work with the satirical magazine Punch. His illustrations often captured the social and political nuances of his time with a blend of humor and keen observation.

The character of Mr. Jorrocks, featured in this particular illustration, originates from the works of Robert Smith Surtees, a 19th-century English novelist known for his humorous and satirical writings on hunting and the English countryside. Mr. Jorrocks, a comical and somewhat roguish fox-hunting grocer, became one of Surtees' most beloved characters, embodying the eccentricities and idiosyncrasies of rural English life.

Leech's illustration "Mr. Jorrocks Come Help! I Say-" vividly brings to life the humorous and chaotic world of Mr. Jorrocks. The scene is likely set in the context of one of Jorrocks' many misadventures, capturing a moment of urgency and comic distress. Leech's adept use of line and expression not only highlights the physical comedy of the situation but also underscores the character's larger-than-life personality.

This work is a testament to Leech's skill in character portrayal and his ability to translate literary humor into visual art. His illustrations for Surtees' novels, including this one, played a significant role in popularizing the stories and bringing the characters to a wider audience. The collaboration between Leech and Surtees remains a notable example of the synergy between literature and illustration in the Victorian era.

"Mr. Jorrocks Come Help! I Say-" continues to be appreciated for its artistic merit and its contribution to the rich tapestry of 19th-century British humor and satire.
