EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph cartoon by Frederick Opper, titled "SENSATION SERMONS, 1883. The Sensation-Sermon Mania" transports us back to a time when the church was caught in the grip of a peculiar frenzy. Depicting an old-style Christian couple standing outside a grand church, it humorously captures their exasperation with the prevailing trend of sensational sermons. The artwork showcases the man and woman dressed in traditional attire, reflecting the late 19th-century American society. With a touch of insanity in their eyes, they stand under a placard that reads: "Where, oh where can I go to hear a little plain, everyday religion preached?". This comical scene highlights their longing for simplicity and authenticity amidst all the religious fervor. Opper's attention to detail is evident as he portrays other characters around them. Men wearing top hats and women adorned with fashionable dresses fill the street leading up to the church entrance. It seems that everyone is swept up in this sensation-sermon mania. Through this thought-provoking image, Opper invites us to reflect on our own spiritual journeys and question whether we are seeking genuine faith or merely chasing after fleeting sensations. As we gaze at this remarkable piece of art from 1883 America, it serves as a reminder that even amidst societal trends and distractions, true spirituality can be found through sincere devotion rather than superficial spectacle.
