His illustrations often focused on the upper echelons of British society, using humour and caricature to comment on the foibles of the rich and famous.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWhite's style was notable for its graceful lines and an acute sense of proportion, which lent an air of sophistication to his subjects. He had an innate talent for capturing the essence of his characters, often imbuing them with exaggerated features that emphasised their personality traits. This approach not only highlighted the absurdity of certain behaviours but also resonated with the readers, making his illustrations instantly recognisable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eDuring his tenure at Vanity Fair, which spanned several decades, White produced a myriad of portraits that depicted influential figures from the worlds of politics, entertainment and the arts.
