What you’re looking at

This political cartoon depicts Mr. Sullivan's visit to President Cleveland. The title indicates this is satirizing a real meeting between these figures. The cartoon is arranged as a visual sequence (reading it rotated), showing various characters in conversation and interaction. The caption "That fifteen minutes with me has done you a power of good" suggests the satire mocks claims that a brief presidential meeting provides significant benefit. The figures appear to be politicians or public figures of the Cleveland administration era (1890s). Without clearer identification of "Sullivan," the specific political context remains somewhat unclear, but the cartoon's structure implies skepticism about the supposed positive effects of presidential access or influence. The satirical point appears to be that such meetings are more performative than substantive.
