Wizard's Vintage Golden Age Illustration

Illustration style LoRA inspired by The Golden Age of American Illustration (ca. 1880–1930). More specifically satirical/political cartoons from PUCK magazine, and the cartoonists; Udo Keppler, Louis Dalrymple, John Samuel Pughe, Bernhard Gillam.

Trained on 100+ images, where I've manually edited out a lot of text from the images (man, did they love to label everything back then). You might see US president Roosevelt appearing quite often, since he was heavily featured in those times.
