EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in American history - the 1856 presidential campaign. The image showcases a powerful campaign emblem designed to oppose the American (Know-Nothing) Party, which played a prominent role during this election season. The emblem's intricate design and attention to detail reflect the intensity of political canvassing during that time. The photograph transports us back to an era when Millard Fillmore, America's 13th president, sought re-election against nativist sentiments represented by the Know-Nothing Party. The emblem itself is striking, featuring a mummy-like figure at its center, symbolizing secrecy and mystery surrounding their policies. Surrounding it are various symbols representing Middle America and typographic elements highlighting key aspects of the party's ideology. This image serves as a reminder of how political campaigns have evolved over time while also shedding light on historical divisions within American society. It offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on past elections and consider how they have shaped our nation today. As we appreciate this remarkable piece of artwork from Granger Art on Demand, let us not forget its historical significance and the impact it had during one of America's most crucial presidential races.
