EDITORS COMMENTS
This illustration, published in Puck magazine on March 29, 1905, depicts a vision of peace personified as the goddess Columbia or Lady Peace. The image shows a flotilla of ships sailing serenely on the tranquil waters, with Theodore Roosevelt's stern visage gracing the lead vessel. Atop the ship, Columbia sits majestically, clad in armor and holding a sword in one hand and an olive branch, fashioned from intertwined bayonets, in the other. Two doves, emblems of peace, fly by her side, also donned in armor and bearing arms. The symbolic representation of peace as a warrior, armed and ready to defend, reflects the complexities of maintaining peace in a world that often requires strength and resolve. This powerful and evocative image, created by an unknown artist for Puck magazine, continues to resonate with viewers over a century later, reminding us of the enduring importance of peace and the role that strong leadership can play in achieving it.
