"Grimaldi's Leap Frog in the Comic Pantomime of the Golden Fish" is an illustration by William Heath, a British artist known for his satirical prints. The artwork is a depiction of the renowned English clown Joseph Grimaldi (1778–1837) performing a scene from the pantomime "The Golden Fish." Pantomime, a type of musical comedy stage production designed for family entertainment, was a popular form of theatre in 19th-century Britain, often performed during the Christmas and New Year season.

The illustration captures the essence of Grimaldi's comedic talent and his physical agility, which were central to his performances. Grimaldi was celebrated for his ability to engage audiences with his expressive face, physical comedy, and the inventive antics of his character, often referred to as "Joey." His performances left a lasting impact on the pantomime tradition, influencing the clown characters in British theatre.

William Heath, active during the early 19th century, was a prominent caricaturist and illustrator. His works often commented on social and political events of the time, but he also produced a number of prints related to the theatre. "Grimaldi's Leap Frog in the Comic Pantomime of the Golden Fish" is one such print, showcasing Heath's attention to detail and his ability to convey the dynamic movement and energy of a live pantomime performance on paper.

The illustration not only serves as a visual record of Grimaldi's performance but also provides insight into the cultural history of entertainment during the period. It reflects the popularity of pantomime and the significant role that performers like Grimaldi played in shaping the genre. Through Heath's artistic lens, the print offers a glimpse into the theatrical world of early 19th-century Britain and the enduring legacy of one of its most beloved entertainers.
