EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon, published in Puck magazine on February 12, 1913, offers a humorous take on the world of opera and the aspirations of young artists. In the foreground, an opera manager, dressed in formal attire, engages in a serious conversation with an attractive young woman. Her hopeful expression and elegant gown suggest that she aspires to a career on the opera stage. Behind them, two somewhat less attractive and considerably heavier women, both wearing ornate opera costumes, eavesdrop on their conversation. Their expressions convey a mix of envy and determination. One woman clutches a score, while the other adjusts her headdress, reflecting their dedication to the art form despite their physical appearance. The cartoonist's use of exaggerated features and caricatured bodies adds to the lighthearted tone of the illustration. The title, "Oh, you grand grand opera!", emphasizes the grandeur and drama of the opera world, while also poking fun at the high expectations and potential disappointments that come with pursuing a career in this competitive field. Overall, this charming cartoon offers a glimpse into the world of opera during the early 20th century, highlighting the dreams, determination, and humor that defined the art form.
