EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph poster captures the essence of the political turmoil surrounding the 1876 presidential election between Republican Rutherford B. Hayes and Democrat Samuel Tilden. The image portrays a scathing critique of alleged fraud that marred this historic event in American politics. In vivid sepia tones, the print showcases prominent figures such as President Hayes, along with other key players like Oliver Morton, Jon Miller, and James Garfield. Their faces reflect both determination and controversy as they navigate through a sea of text-filled banners proclaiming "Political Farce of 1876". The artist's skillful rendering highlights the disputed twenty electoral votes that ultimately tipped the scales in favor of Hayes. This contentious decision is symbolized by an African American man standing prominently amidst all these political machinations - a reminder of racial tensions at play during this era. The lithograph serves not only as a historical artifact but also as a powerful commentary on democracy itself. It reminds us that even within our most cherished institutions, there can be flaws and manipulation. Presidential Election, 1876: The Political Farce of 1876 encapsulates an important chapter in American history when trust in our democratic processes was tested. As we gaze upon this print from Granger Art on Demand, we are reminded to remain vigilant guardians of our democracy while striving for fairness and transparency in every future election.
