It can be considered both. There are non - fictional accounts that describe the economic, political, and social aspects of the Gilded Age. These include historical research, biographies of key figures during that time. But there are also many fictional works that use the backdrop of the Gilded Age. Novels, short stories, and plays often create fictional characters and plotlines that are inspired by the real - life events, trends, and issues of the Gilded Age. So, it depends on the specific work you are referring to.
