What you’re looking at

This political cartoon depicts Lady Justice (center, blindfolded, with scales) flanked by two caricatured male figures. The caption "She Beats the Deuce at Last" suggests Justice has triumphed over two opponents—the "deuce" likely referring to the two men beside her. Based on the exaggerated facial features typical of *The Wasp's* satirical style, these appear to be caricatures of specific political or public figures, though their identities aren't explicitly labeled. The bearded man on the left and the figure on the right are drawn with harsh, mocking features. Without additional historical context or labels, the exact political reference remains unclear, but the cartoon celebrates Justice prevailing against two adversaries—likely commenting on a recent legal victory or political outcome.
