EDITORS COMMENTS
In this wood engraving from 1872, we are transported back to the intense presidential campaign of that year. The image titled "Greeleys Thermometer" humorously captures the reaction of Horace Greeley, a prominent candidate, to different states during the October election. The cartoon depicts Greeley's frustration and exasperation as he navigates through various states on his political journey. As a liberal man representing the Democratic Party, Greeley's emotions are vividly portrayed through his facial expressions and body language. His reactions range from disbelief to astonishment as he encounters different challenges in each state. One cannot help but notice the presence of a hot air balloon hovering above Greeley, symbolizing his lofty aspirations for presidency. However, it seems that reality is setting in as he faces obstacles along the way. Tammany Hall, known for its influence in New York politics at that time, is cleverly included in this artwork. It serves as a reminder of the complex political landscape during this era. This wood engraving not only provides historical context but also showcases the creativity and wit of artists during that period. It offers us an intriguing glimpse into one particular moment within American history where campaigns were fought with both passion and satire. Granger Art on Demand has once again brought us an extraordinary piece that invites contemplation and reflection upon our nation's past electoral processes.
