EDITORS COMMENTS
This pen-and-ink drawing by Charles Dana Gibson, titled "A Senseless After-Dinner Custom" takes us back to the year 1899 and offers a glimpse into the extravagant world of America's upper class during the Gilded Age. The illustration showcases a lavish dinner party where men and women are dressed in their finest attire, epitomizing the fashion trends of that era. The scene depicts an opulent dining room filled with laughter and conversation. Men don elegant tuxedos while women wear exquisite gowns, both reflecting the wealth and status of this elite social circle. Gibson's attention to detail is evident in his meticulous rendering of each character's attire, capturing the essence of late 19th-century American fashion. Despite its title, "A Senseless After-Dinner Custom" it remains unclear what specific custom is being referred to in this artwork. However, one can imagine that it might be a critique on some frivolous tradition or behavior associated with these privileged gatherings. Gibson was renowned for his creation of the iconic Gibson Girl archetype—a symbol of independent and confident American womanhood at that time—and this piece further demonstrates his talent for illustrating societal norms through satire. Through this print, we are transported back to an era characterized by excesses and extravagance within America's upper echelons—an intriguing snapshot frozen in time through artistry and imagination.
