Do It Now - A Visionary Alliance Between East and West
EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, published in Puck magazine on May 26, 1909, depicts an extraordinary moment in history as three influential figures from different parts of the world join hands and take a leap into the unknown. James Hazen Hyde, an American businessman and philanthropist, stands alongside the former Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, Abdul Hamid II, and Cuban revolutionary leader, José Martí, as they collectively step off the earth. The image, titled "Do It Now!", reflects the spirit of unity and collaboration between the East and the West during a time when political and cultural tensions were at an all-time high. Abdul Hamid, known for his modernizing reforms and efforts to preserve the Ottoman Empire, is seen in traditional Turkish attire, while Hyde and Martí are dressed in Western suits. José Martí, a key figure in the Cuban struggle for independence from Spain, had recently arrived in the United States to rally support for the cause. His presence in this illustration underscores the growing global awareness and solidarity among anti-colonial movements. The image serves as a powerful reminder of the potential for collaboration and understanding between diverse cultures and communities. It also highlights the role that individuals, regardless of their backgrounds, can play in shaping the course of history. As we reflect on this historic moment, we are reminded of the importance of unity, collaboration, and the power of collective action in addressing the challenges of our time. This illustration from Puck magazine not only offers a fascinating glimpse into the past but also serves as an enduring symbol of hope and inspiration for the future.
