Love's Labor Lost - A Political Triangle of Scandal and Religion in 19th Century America
EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Love's Labor Lost," was created by renowned American caricaturist Bernard Gillam and published in the New York Tribune on December 12, 1889. The original version of this masterpiece first graced the pages of Puck magazine on May 7, 1884. The image depicts three prominent politicians of the time, James G. Blaine, William W. Phelps, and Whitelaw Reid, engaged in a humorous and scandalous scene. Blaine, a Republican statesman and former Speaker of the House, is shown attempting to woo Phelps, a Mormon bishop, while Reid, the editor of the New York Tribune, looks on in amusement. The scene is further complicated by the presence of a tattooed man, symbolizing the influence of Mormonism on American politics. The intricate details of the lithograph, executed in black and white, reveal the skillful hand of Gillam. The use of lithotint adds depth and texture to the image, making it a standout piece of 19th century American art. The political climate of the time is reflected in the caricature, as Blaine was embroiled in a scandal involving allegations of bribery, while Phelps was a controversial figure due to his religious beliefs. The image serves as a snapshot of the complex web of politics, religion, and personal relationships that shaped the United States during this era. Today, "Love's Labor Lost" is a valuable addition to the collections of many prestigious art institutions, including the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to captivate audiences and provide insight into the rich history of American art and politics.
