EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "NAST: INFLATION, 1873. By inflation you will burst" captures a powerful political cartoon created by Thomas Nast in 1873. In this artwork, Nast uses his artistic talent to convey a strong message about the dangers of inflation. At the center of the cartoon stands an elephant, symbolizing the Republican Party and America itself. The elephant is depicted as Uncle Sam, holding a bag labeled "Inflation" that is being filled with dollars at an alarming rate. This visual representation highlights how unchecked inflation can lead to disastrous consequences for the nation. Surrounding Uncle Sam are various containers labeled with different political entities such as FAA, FLK, AOD, and ENCBR - perhaps representing different sectors or groups affected by inflation during that time period. Nast's satire skillfully exposes the potential harm caused by excessive printing of money and warns that if left uncontrolled, it could result in economic collapse. Through this thought-provoking image, he urges viewers to consider the importance of responsible fiscal policies and sound financial management. This print serves as a historical reminder of one artist's attempt to use his creative talents to shed light on pressing issues within American politics during the late 19th century.
