More about this artwork

"Where's My Square Deal?" is a compelling and satirical painting by John Samuel Pughe, created in 1905. This artwork dives deep into the tumultuous waters of early 20th-century politics and corporate ethics, painting a vivid scene of chaos and desperation.In the center of the piece, we see a man submerged up to his neck in water, his face contorted in a grimace of fear and surprise. Swirling around him are papers and documents, each marked with words that evoke corruption and deceit: "Bribery," "Fake Transactions," "Graft," and more. These papers suggest the flotsam of scandal, perhaps hinting at the overwhelming surge of corporate and political misconduct coming to light at the time.Adding a layer of dark humor and symbolism, an elephant—often associated with the Republican Party in the U.S.—is seen floating away with a lifebuoy marked "G.O.P.," suggesting the possible escape or indifference of the party from the prevailing issues.The ominous and stormy seascape in the background complements the theme of turmoil and upheaval. This painting not only captures but also critiques the socio-political environment of its time, using intense imagery and sharp commentary to evoke reflection and reaction from its viewers.
