EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in American political history, showcasing the Puck figure for the Independent party standing proudly on a raised platform at the Democratic National Convention in 1884. The flag he hoists boldly declares support for Grover Cleveland as President, symbolizing the unity between Independents and Democrats during this era.
In the background, a female figure representing the Democratic Party gestures towards the flag, emphasizing their alliance in this crucial election. Meanwhile, Benjamin F. Butler and John Kelly are depicted in clown and Native American costumes respectively, shedding tears over what seems to be a significant turning point.
The intricate details of this illustration speak volumes about the intense political climate of the late 19th century in America. The symbolism behind each character and gesture adds layers of meaning to this image, making it a fascinating piece for historians and political enthusiasts alike.
