EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures Clarence Lexow, an influential American lawyer and legislator, during a pivotal moment in his career. In the late 19th century, Lexow led a state legislative committee that embarked on a relentless investigation into corruption within the New York police department. The cartoon-like image portrays Lexow peering through a magnifying glass, symbolizing his meticulous scrutiny of the political landscape. At this time, New York City was plagued by rampant corruption and criminal activity linked to Tammany Hall, a powerful political machine notorious for its control over local government. Lexow's committee aimed to expose these illicit practices and bring about much-needed reform. The artist behind this piece is W. A. Rogers, who skillfully depicts Lexow as he delves deep into the heart of darkness surrounding him. The cartoonish elements add both humor and irony to the scene while highlighting the severity of the situation. This photograph serves as a reminder of an era when individuals like Clarence Lexow fought tirelessly against political malfeasance in order to restore integrity to public institutions. It stands as a testament to their unwavering dedication and determination in seeking justice for all citizens affected by corruption at the turn of the century.
