EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Andrew Jackson Cartoon" captures a significant moment in American history. The cartoon, created in 1831, portrays President Andrew Jackson engaged in a game of poker with prominent figures of the time. Positioned on the far left is Henry Clay, holding a losing hand marked "U. S. Bank and Tariff Protection" symbolizing his opposition to Jackson's economic policies. Seated next to Clay is William Wirt, the Anti-Masonic candidate, representing another political movement during that era. John C. Calhoun stands with his back turned, adding an air of mystery to the scene. The table they gather around becomes a stage for this intense game where politics and finance intertwine. Jackson himself is depicted as a skilled gambler, reflecting his reputation as a shrewd politician who made bold decisions throughout his presidency. This image showcases not only the early years of American democracy but also highlights key players and their roles in shaping the nation's future. The Granger Collection has beautifully preserved this piece of art that offers insight into political acts and alliances from that era. It serves as both entertainment and historical documentation while shedding light on important issues such as banking systems and trade tariffs at that time.
