"March of Intellect" is a series of satirical prints created by British artist William Heath (1794–1840) in the early 19th century. The series humorously comments on the contemporary social and technological changes during the period known as the British Industrial Revolution. Heath's work reflects the skepticism and anxiety that some segments of society felt towards the rapid advancements in science, technology, and education, which were collectively referred to as the "March of Intellect" – a term popularized by its critics.

The prints often depict fantastical inventions and scenarios, exaggerating the possible outcomes of the era's intellectual progress to the point of absurdity. For example, one of the most famous prints from the series shows people using personal flying machines, a whimsical foresight into the future of transportation. Heath's caricatures serve as a visual critique of the era's optimistic belief in progress, highlighting the fears that such advancements could lead to a loss of control or the dehumanization of society.

William Heath, a prominent caricaturist of his time, was known for his sharp wit and ability to capture the public's imagination through his art. His "March of Intellect" series is considered an important contribution to the genre of British satirical prints, offering valuable insights into the cultural and social attitudes of the early 19th century. The series remains a significant historical record, illustrating the tensions between progress and tradition during a transformative period in British history.
