EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Satirical Snapshot of 19th Century American Politics In this vibrant color lithograph on newsprint, Joseph Keppler takes us back to the political landscape of November 12,1884. The image features a whimsical caricature of John Kelly, the Mayor of New York City at the time. With his rooster-like appearance and confident stance, Kelly is depicted as a cockerel proudly announcing his presence. Published in Puck magazine, known for its satirical take on politics and culture, this artwork captures the essence of political humor during that era. Keppler's skillful use of lithography brings out every detail with precision and adds depth to the scene. The cartoonish depiction serves as a parody of politicians and their grandiose personas. Through clever symbolism and exaggerated features, Keppler highlights both the power and absurdity associated with those in positions of authority. This print not only showcases Keppler's artistic talent but also provides insight into America's historical context. It offers a glimpse into an era where satire played an essential role in shaping public opinion. Displayed within the Art Institute Chicago or any art gallery or center dedicated to preserving heritage art, this piece invites viewers to reflect upon our country's rich political history while enjoying its humorous undertones.
