EDITORS COMMENTS
"In this whimsical illustration from Puck magazine, published on March 29, 1905, James R. Garfield, the Commissioner of Corporations, is depicted as a devotional artist in the presence of an extraordinary subject: Saint Bovine. The saintly figure of the bull sits serenely atop a cornucopia, overflowing with an abundance of meat cuts. Garfield, with a brush in hand, captures the moment, immortalizing the divine bovine in a painting. The playful take on the traditional saint image is a commentary on the power and influence of the meat industry during this era. The illustration, with its intricate details and clever concept, showcases the artistic prowess of the Puck magazine team and their ability to satirically reflect the societal and cultural nuances of the time." This image from Puck magazine, published on March 29, 1905, presents a unique twist on the conventional saint image. James R. Garfield, the Commissioner of Corporations, is shown as a dedicated artist, engrossed in the creation of a masterpiece. His subject, however, is far from the typical saintly figure - it is a bull, transformed into the revered Saint Bovine. Seated majestically atop a cornucopia, the bull is surrounded by an overflowing abundance of meat cuts. The cornucopia, a symbol of abundance and prosperity, further emphasizes the power and influence of the meat industry during this time. The intricately detailed illustration, with its clever concept, is a testament to the artistic talent and satirical wit of the Puck magazine team. This image offers a fascinating glimpse into the societal and cultural nuances of the early 20th century.
