| Summary | "A Selection of Cartoons from Puck" by Joseph Ferdinand Keppler is a collection of political cartoons created between the late 19th century. The compilation showcases the work of Keppler, a leading figure in American satire, who influenced the cartooning style in the U.S. through his German artistic heritage. The themes dealt with in the cartoons reflect contemporary social and political issues, notably engaging with events and figures significant to the period. The opening of the book presents an introduction by H. C. Bunner, detailing Keppler's background and contributions to the field of cartooning. It highlights the distinction between cartoonists and caricaturists, outlining how Keppler's approach combined both art forms to critique political figures and societal events. The subsequent pages feature specific examples of Keppler's work, indicating his keen insight into the political climate of his time, starting with an allegorical depiction of the Democratic Party in a politically charged context. The introduction sets the tone for the collection, prompting readers to engage with the satirical yet reflective nature of Keppler's art. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
