General Jackson Slaying the Many Headed Monster
This political cartoon depicts a pro-Jackson viewpoint of the "Bank War" which was president Andrew Jackson's campaign to bring an end the the second national bank. The cartoon shows Jackson raising a cane saying veto, representing his actions in congress when they handed him a bill to recharter the bank. Jackson is also talking to his vice president at the time, Martin Van Buren, telling him to support his destruction of the national bank, or be killed by the monster in the cartoon. The biggest head on the monster is Nicholas Biddle, the president of the 2nd national bank and obviously Jackson's biggest opponent in the "Bank War", with the other heads being people of power in states which supported the national bank. Due to the fact that the bank is represented by an evil and grotesque monster, the artist was clearly in favor of Jackson's stance on the national bank and wanted it's destruction.
What about the fact that the attributed author/artist, HR Robinson, was an ardent Whig known for his criticisms of Jackson?

#Cheesecake is a Vegetable
DeleteYasssss queen! Let it be known
DeleteActually it is an animal. The scientific name is "caseus libum". Just open your eyes, it is migration season for the cheesecakes! Watch them as they frolic in the snow.
DeleteAh, but beware, wild cheesecakes carry some nasty viruses. I had a cousin who got bit, he kept rambling about dessert. Pity, really, he was such a nice guy.
Deletewow
Deletei like cheesecake

ReplyDeleteYou did a good job depicting everything author.
ReplyDeleteWhy is the monster a snake? It would be much scarier if it was a textbook.
ReplyDeleteI think that the monster should be a bean burrito and the heads should be the gas that comes after eating the burrito
