EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print titled "King Andrew the first, c. 1833" showcases a satirical portrayal of Andrew Jackson, the 7th President of the United States. Measuring 31.4x21 cm, this artwork is housed in the American Antiquarian Society in Worcester, Massachusetts. The image depicts President Jackson as a monarch, holding a scepter and wearing regal attire. It serves as a political cartoon that criticizes his use of veto power and perceived disregard for constitutional limits on his authority. The artist employs caricature to highlight Jackson's strong-willed nature and assertive leadership style. During his presidency, Jackson faced numerous crises related to finance and banking systems. This print symbolizes those struggles by incorporating elements such as a constitution and references to financial matters into the composition. Created during the 19th century by an anonymous American School artist, this engraving offers insight into both historical events and popular sentiment surrounding President Jackson's rule. Its inclusion in the collection at American Antiquarian Society preserves an important piece of political satire from that era. As we admire this thought-provoking artwork today, it reminds us of how art has long been used as a tool for social commentary and critique within society.
