EDITORS COMMENTS
The lithograph titled "CARTOON: ELECTION OF 1864. A little game of bagatelle, between Old Abe the railsplitter and Little Mac the gunboat general" captures a pivotal moment in American history. Depicting the presidential election of 1864, it showcases Republican nominee Abraham Lincoln and Democratic nominee Gen. George B. McClellan engaged in a playful game of bagatelle. This cartoon serves as a reflection of the intense political climate during the Civil War era. The image portrays Lincoln, known as "Old Abe" representing the Republican Party, while McClellan is depicted as "Little Mac" symbolizing his military background as a gunboat general. The artist skillfully incorporates various elements into this scene to convey deeper meaning. The billiard table represents America itself, with both candidates vying for control over its destiny amidst the chaos of war. Other figures such as Andrew Johnson, John Pendleton, Ulysses Grant, and Clement Vallandigham are also present on this political battleground. Through this lithograph's clever composition and symbolism, viewers are reminded of how crucial this election was for shaping America's future during one of its most challenging times. It highlights not only the personalities involved but also their differing visions for post-war reconstruction. Overall, this historical artwork provides us with valuable insights into an important chapter in American democracy - an election that would determine who would lead the nation through these turbulent times towards unity and progress.
