EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "New Deal Cartoon, 1938" takes us back to a significant era in American history. Created by the talented Clifford Berryman, this cartoon cleverly criticizes President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal spending policies. The image portrays FDR as a mystic magician donning a top hat and holding a wand labeled "spending". Surrounding him are men representing various sectors of society, seemingly entranced by his performance. The cartoon serves as both political commentary and entertainment, capturing the essence of the time when America was grappling with economic challenges. Through symbolism and satire, Berryman highlights concerns about excessive government spending during the Great Depression. Despite its age, this artwork remains relevant today as it prompts reflection on the role of government intervention in times of crisis. It reminds us that even well-intentioned policies can have unintended consequences if not carefully managed. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking piece from 1938, we are reminded of how art has always been an avenue for expressing dissent and sparking dialogue within our democracy. This Granger Collection print allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill behind Berryman's work and its historical significance in shaping public opinion during one of America's most transformative periods.
