EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage cartoon print from 1916, titled "CONGRESS CARTOON" captures the U. S. Congress demanding and receiving the respect it deserves from the public. Created by A. B. Walker, an American cartoonist of that era, this artwork offers a glimpse into early American politics. In the illustration, we see a group of men personifying members of Congress. They are depicted as overweight individuals wearing top hats and carrying canes, symbolizing their authority and power. One man is shown engaging in a fistfight with another personification representing the public. The image portrays Congress asserting its dominance over public opinion through physical force, highlighting the contentious relationship between lawmakers and citizens during this time period. It reflects how politicians believed they were entitled to respect due to their position in government. This political cartoon serves as a reminder of America's rich history and sheds light on societal dynamics prevalent at that time. It provides valuable insight into how people perceived Congress and its role in shaping national policies. As a piece of art captured on film by Granger Art on Demand, this print preserves an important historical artifact for future generations to study and appreciate our nation's past political landscape.
