The Captain & Corporals Guard - A Political Satire of President John Tyler's Veto Power
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This lithograph, published in 1841 by H. R. Robinson in New York, offers a fascinating glimpse into the political landscape of 19th century America. Measuring at 28.5x36.8 cm, this print showcases a satirical depiction of President John Tyler and his tumultuous relationship with Congress. At the center of the image stands President Tyler himself, portrayed as a towering figure on stilts labeled "Veto". This clever representation symbolizes his frequent use of veto power to reject bills proposed by Congress. Surrounding him are remnants of his Congressional supporters and Cabinet members who stand bewildered after their Bank Bill failed to gain approval. The artist skillfully captures the tension and division within American politics during this era. The print serves as both a critique and commentary on President Tyler's controversial decisions regarding banking legislation sponsored by Henry Clay. With its intricate details and sharp caricatures, this lithograph provides valuable insights into the financial and political climate of early America. It is an important historical artifact that sheds light on the complex dynamics between politicians, power struggles, and public sentiment during this transformative period in United States history.
