EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating cartoon print "Tournament of Today" from 1883 vividly portrays the unequal battle between labor and monopoly during the Gilded Age. This thought-provoking artwork exposes the prominent figures who supported monopolies, namely W. H. Vanderbilt, Cyrus W. Field, and Jay Gould. In this visually striking image, we witness a fierce jousting tournament taking place between two opposing forces: labor and monopoly. The knights representing labor are valiantly fighting for their rights and fair treatment in the face of overwhelming power wielded by the monopolists. These robber barons are symbolized by Vanderbilt, Field, and Gould as they sit atop their trusty steeds adorned with symbols of capitalism. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this historical moment by highlighting not only the physical clash but also the underlying political acts that perpetuated inequality during that era. The cow catcher attached to one knight's horse represents how monopolies ruthlessly trampled over workers' rights without remorse or consequence. This powerful cartoon serves as a reminder of both past struggles and ongoing debates surrounding wealth disparity in society. It sheds light on how monopolistic practices can hinder progress and stifle economic growth while emphasizing the importance of collective action against such oppressive systems. Granger Art on Demand has once again provided us with an invaluable glimpse into history through this remarkable piece from their collection.
