EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage lithograph print titled "CARTOON: HIGH SOCIETY. The Original Four Hundred" offers a whimsical and satirical portrayal of the elite members of Gilded Age high society in 1889 America. Created by Granger, NYC, this artwork takes us back to an era when social status was defined by wealth and exclusivity. The cartoon depicts a gathering at the prestigious Manhattan Club, one of the most renowned establishments during that time. Delmonico's restaurant, another symbol of opulence and refinement, can be seen in the background. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this privileged group with exaggerated features and comical elements. As we observe this scene closely, it becomes apparent that even among these upper-class individuals, there is an element of absurdity. A monkey dressed in fine attire stands prominently amidst them all, perhaps serving as a metaphor for their behavior or highlighting their animalistic tendencies despite their refined appearances. This lithograph serves as both entertainment and commentary on the evolution of high society in late 19th-century America. It reminds us that while wealth may grant access to exclusive clubs like those depicted here or lavish resorts like Saratoga Springs mentioned in its description; true class cannot be bought or inherited but must be earned through genuine character and integrity. Granger Art on Demand presents this piece from their collection as a window into history - a snapshot frozen in time that allows us to reflect upon our own notions of privilege and social hierarchy today.
