EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and thought-provoking print titled "Peace but Not Business" captures the struggle America faced in trading with a peaceful Europe during the late 19th century. Created by Bernard Gillam, this satirical artwork was originally featured in Puck Magazine, offering a biting commentary on the complexities of international trade. The image portrays a bustling European street scene, complete with shops and stores representing various countries. In the foreground stands an American merchant, symbolizing America's desire to engage in commerce with Europe. However, he is met with resistance as a large collie dog guards one of the shops, signifying protectionism and reluctance to open up markets. Gillam's use of color lithography brings vibrancy to this piece, highlighting both the beauty and challenges associated with transatlantic trade. The contrasting colors serve as visual metaphors for conflicting interests between nations. Through this artwork, Gillam raises questions about economic barriers and political tensions that hindered American businesses from fully accessing European markets during this period. It serves as a reminder that peace does not always guarantee smooth business transactions or equal opportunities for all involved parties. As we reflect on "Peace but Not Business" it prompts us to consider historical struggles in global trade while also encouraging dialogue around present-day challenges faced by nations seeking mutually beneficial economic relationships across borders.
