EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "NAST: TILDEN CARTOON, 1876. Putting a Head On" captures a satirical cartoon by Thomas Nast from 1876, mocking Samuel J. Tilden's attempt at Democratic reform during the presidential election. In this cleverly crafted illustration, Nast portrays Tilden as a boxer in a tailored suit and smoking a cigar, symbolizing his political power and influence. The image showcases Tilden standing tall with an air of confidence while holding the head of his opponent, representing his determination to overcome any obstacles in his path to victory. The use of boxing imagery suggests that politics can be seen as a fierce battle where candidates fight for supremacy. Nast's artistic skills shine through in this engraving as he skillfully captures every detail, from the intricate tailoring on Tilden's suit to the expression on his face. The composition is visually striking and draws attention to the subject matter at hand – political reform. This historical artifact offers us insight into American politics during this era and highlights Nast's role as an influential political cartoonist. It serves as both entertainment and social commentary, reminding viewers that even those who strive for change may face ridicule along their journey. Granger Art on Demand presents this piece from their collection, providing us with an opportunity to appreciate the artistry and satire embedded within it.
