EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful illustration from 1901 depicts Uncle Sam leading the child Cuba away from the old world, warning him of a "wicked man" who is out to harm him. With a sense of urgency and protection, Uncle Sam guides Cuba towards the new world of progress and development.
The symbolism in this image is profound - representing the United States as a guiding figure, steering Cuba away from danger and towards a brighter future. The crocodile lurking in the background serves as a metaphor for threats that may be looming, ready to "gobble up" innocent nations like Cuba.
As Uncle Sam trains Cuba into the ways of progress, it highlights America's role in shaping global politics and influencing other countries. The colors used in this illustration add depth to its message, with vibrant hues capturing the tension between old traditions and modern advancements.
Overall, this historical print captures a pivotal moment in American-Cuban relations during the early 20th century. It serves as a reminder of how power dynamics can shape international affairs and influence the course of history.
