EDITORS COMMENTS
Making Progress: A Satirical Look into the Life of a budding Singer in 1919 This cartoon, titled "Making Progress," depicts a young woman in the midst of her musical journey, sitting confidently at the piano with a determined expression on her face. Her friend, bundled up in a coat and hat, listens attentively as she shares the news of her latest accomplishment. However, the serene moment is interrupted by a complaint from a tenant residing on the sixth floor, as indicated by the smokestack-like chimney poking out from the window in the background. The woman's voice, once soft and timid, has grown louder and stronger, as evidenced by the expanding sound waves emanating from her mouth. This progression is a testament to her dedication and hard work, as she undergoes rigorous training under the watchful eye of a stern-looking concierge. The piano keys, adorned with the inscription "Lessons," symbolize the countless hours she has spent perfecting her craft. This satirical cartoon, created in 1919, offers a humorous yet insightful commentary on the challenges and triumphs of an aspiring singer during this era. The use of exaggerated features and the quirky details, such as the tenant's complaint and the concierge's stern demeanor, add to the overall charm and appeal of this historical piece. As we observe the young woman's unwavering commitment to her passion, we are reminded of the resilience and determination that lies within each of us, enabling us to overcome obstacles and make progress in our own lives.
