EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "LEAGUE OF NATIONS, 1919. And Still the Cart has Precedence" captures a powerful American cartoon comment by W. A. Rogers in March 1919, reflecting the resistance to the League of Nations. In this thought-provoking image, we see a man representing America holding the reins of a horse-drawn cart labeled "War". The man is attempting to steer the horse towards a road sign that reads "Peace" symbolizing his desire for peace and stability. However, what stands out in this illustration is the stubbornness of the horse as it resists going in that direction. With its head turned away from peace, it seems determined to continue down its current path of conflict and turmoil. This visual metaphor highlights the challenges faced by those advocating for international cooperation and diplomacy during this crucial time. W. A. Rogers' artistic talent shines through in this early political cartoon with intricate details such as the whip held by America's hand, emphasizing his effort to guide and control the situation. The engraving style adds depth and texture to each element within the image. This piece belongs to Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection and serves as an important historical artifact showcasing public sentiment towards global collaboration after World War I. It reminds us of how difficult it can be to change course when entrenched interests resist progress but also underscores our ongoing pursuit for lasting peace on an international scale.
