# "Vanitie" - Judge Magazine, May 23, 1914 This illustration is titled "Vanitie" and depicts a woman gazing at her reflection in a hand mirror. The work appears to be social commentary on female vanity—a common satirical theme in early 20th-century magazines. The woman is drawn in profile, absorbed in admiring herself, while her actual reflection shows her face clearly in the mirror she holds. The artist has signed the work "Goldheick" (or similar). Judge magazine frequently published such character studies and social critiques. Without additional context clues, this appears to be general satire about women's preoccupation with appearance rather than commentary on a specific person or event. The "Vanitie" title makes the satirical point explicit.
