Columbia's Easter Bonnet,
EDITORS COMMENTS
Puck Magazine, April 6, 1901 This classic illustration from Puck Magazine, published on April 6, 1901, depicts Columbia, the personification of the United States, wearing an unusual Easter bonnet. Instead of the traditional floral or pastel design, Columbia's bonnet takes the form of a battleship labeled "World Power," complete with two guns named "Army" and "Navy." The battleship is emitting thick black smoke labeled "Expansion," symbolizing the country's growing military and territorial power. Columbia is shown adjusting her extravagant headpiece, inserting a tiny sword as a hatpin to secure it in place. The sword, a symbol of power and authority, underscores the military might and determination of the United States during this era. The illustration reflects the national pride and ambition of the early 20th century, a time when the US was expanding its influence and power on the global stage. This humorous and thought-provoking cartoon from Puck Magazine, a leading satirical publication of the time, was likely intended to comment on the country's foreign policy and military expansion during the presidency of Theodore Roosevelt. The image of Columbia wearing a battleship as an Easter bonnet is a striking representation of the United States' emerging identity as a global superpower, a role it continues to play in the 21st century.
