More about this artwork

John Samuel Pughe's 1903 political satire "Solitaire" captures a moment infused with symbolic meaning and humor, presented in the vivid and engaging style characteristic of Puck magazine's colorful lithographs. At the heart of this artwork is a giant elephant, adorned with a sash that reads "G.O.P.," clearly representing the Republican Party. In an illustrative twist, the elephant is engrossed in playing a game of solitaire, with cards that feature caricatures of prominent political figures of the time, including Theodore Roosevelt.The setting of the piece includes a background glimpse of the Capitol, hinting at the governmental and political context of the illustration. The elephant’s focused and perhaps solitary endeavor at the card table alludes to the political maneuvers and strategies often undertaken by parties behind closed doors. Pughe’s work is not just a critique but a playful poke at the political landscape of early 20th century America, inviting viewers to reflect on the games of politics through an engaging and light-hearted lens.
