{"product_id":"judge-illustrations-13","title":"Burlesque on Fifth Avenue- Judge Magazine","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis delightful chromolithograph from Judge magazine captures one of the most satirized social phenomena of the Gilded Age: American Anglomania. The scene depicts a crowd of American social climbers, dressed in absurdly exaggerated interpretations of British fashion, gathered outside a Vanderbilt Fifth Avenue mansion, eagerly awaiting a glimpse of a visiting Duke. The lone aristocrat stands apart, elegantly understated in his tan overcoat, coolly observing the fawning masses through curling cigarette smoke.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe caricatures are brilliantly rendered, each figure a study in misguided aspiration, from the gentleman in the enormous checkered cape to the cluster of men in clashing plaids and improbable hats. Printed by Sackett \u0026amp; Wilhelms for Judge magazine in the mid-1890s, this piece exemplifies the sophisticated color lithography and sharp social commentary that made Judge and Puck essential reading for educated Americans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA wonderful document of the era when American industrial fortunes sought validation through European titles, and Fifth Avenue mansions served as stages for social theater. A standout piece for collectors of American satire or Gilded Age social history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.25\" x 13.0\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Authentic Vintage Posters","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44632053219443,"sku":"IL7199","price":74.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0088\/3005\/8556\/files\/edited_abf8529a-fbf0-4830-ac48-1695e6bf974c.jpg?v=1775247050","url":"https:\/\/www.authenticvintageposters.com\/en-nl\/products\/judge-illustrations-13","provider":"Authentic Vintage Posters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
