About this work
A chromolithographic political cartoon by Bernhard Gillam from 1884, titled Puck's plan to relieve the country of two embarrassments, shows a jester in motley presenting a large heap of gold coins on a purple cushion labeled as a $50,000,000 surplus resulting from over-taxation. Richly dressed courtiers in armor, robes and ruffs crowd around a throne, while banners and labeled figures such as a Minister of War and a Minister of Finance fill the scene.
