EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Tired of his playthings, or, Four ciphers equal to a unit" captures a satirical political cartoon from the 19th century. Depicting Andrew Jackson, the 7th President of the United States, it offers a glimpse into the political climate of that era. In this lithograph by American School, we see Jackson portrayed as a male figure surrounded by various symbols and animals. The composition includes ladders representing different states and a cat perched on top. It is evident that Jackson has grown weary of these playthings or distractions. This artwork serves as a caricature and satire aimed at federalists and politicians in general. Through clever symbolism and engraving techniques, it conveys the message that these figures are mere ciphers or insignificant units in the grand scheme of things. Measuring 28x22.2 cm, this piece is part of the collection housed at the American Antiquarian Society in Worcester, Massachusetts. Its historical significance lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its portrayal of one of America's most influential leaders. As an out-of-copyright image courtesy of Bridgeman Images, this print allows us to delve deeper into our nation's past while appreciating both its artistic value and political commentary.
