In Georgia (In Georgia)

EDITORS COMMENTS
by Puck, 1892 This political cartoon, titled "In Georgia (In Georgia)," was created by the renowned American satirical magazine Puck in 1892. The image portrays a group of men, representing various states, gathered around a table, each holding a glass of milk, symbolizing their supposed innocence. The focus of their attention is a man from Georgia, who is depicted as a pig, holding a jug of milk labeled "Vote for Governor" and a bottle labeled "Whiskey." The cartoon is a commentary on the controversial gubernatorial election in Georgia during that year. The incumbent governor, Alfred H. Colquitt, was accused of corruption and was running for re-election despite these allegations. The cartoonist, using the pig symbol to represent Georgia and the corrupt governor, satirically highlights the moral decay of the state's political system. The title of the cartoon, "In Georgia (In Georgia)," is a play on words, referencing both the state's name and the popular song "In Dixie Land (Oh, I Am Sad, I Am Sad)," which was popular during that time. The use of humor and satire in this political cartoon was a common tactic employed by Puck and other similar publications to engage and inform the public about current events and issues. This print, with its rich historical significance and artistic merit, is a valuable addition to any collection of political cartoons or American history. Its intriguing commentary on the political climate of the late 19th century and the use of satire to address corruption and moral decay continue to resonate with audiences today.
