EDITORS COMMENTS
The "Free Silver Cartoon, 1890" captures the essence of a pivotal moment in American history. Created by Bernard Gillam, this cartoon celebrates the enactment of the Sherman Silver Purchase Act. The artwork depicts Uncle Sam, a symbol of America, basking under the radiant glow of the "Silver Sun of Prosperity". In this vibrant portrayal, Gillam ingeniously combines elements of finance and politics to convey his message. The silver coin prominently displayed represents the movement for free silver in late 19th-century America. This economic concept aimed to increase the circulation of silver currency alongside gold as a means to boost commerce and stimulate economic growth. Gillam's cartoon serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a political statement. It reflects the prevailing sentiment among Americans at that time who believed that embracing free silver would lead to greater prosperity for all citizens. The Sherman Silver Purchase Act was seen as a significant victory for advocates of free silver, hence its celebration in this artwork. By capturing this historic moment through his artistry, Gillam immortalizes not only an important piece of legislation but also highlights how intertwined economics and politics are within society. This print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to appreciate Gillam's skillful craftsmanship while providing insight into one chapter in America's complex economic history.
