EDITORS COMMENTS
This cartoon, titled "President Grant Flying a Kite," is a colorful and humorous illustration from the pages of Puck, a popular American magazine published between 1880 and 1889. Created by renowned artists Joseph Keppler and Bernhard Gillam, this lithograph captures the essence of the 1880s and offers a glimpse into the political climate of the time. The cartoon depicts President Ulysses S. Grant, the 18th President of the United States, attempting to fly a kite during a thunderstorm. Surrounded by a group of anxious politicians, including fellow Republican Rutherford B. Hayes, Grant is shown with a determined expression on his face as he holds the kite's string, a bolt of lightning ominously looming in the background. The cartoon's concept is rooted in the historical context of the time, as President Grant was known for his love of kite flying and was often depicted in public opinion as being out of touch with the political realities of his presidency. The use of a toy kite and a lightning bolt adds a playful yet satirical touch to the image, highlighting the political tensions and humor of the era. This colorful and historic illustration is a valuable addition to any collection of 19th-century American art and offers a unique perspective on the political landscape of the United States during the late 1800s. Today, this work of art can be found in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, a testament to its enduring historical significance.
