EDITORS COMMENTS
This satirical etching by Adalbert Volck captures a significant moment in American history - Abraham Lincoln's secretive passage through Baltimore in 1861. Faced with rumors of an assassination attempt, the newly elected president discreetly travels by boxcar on his way to Washington, D. C. for his inauguration. The image portrays Lincoln as a cat, symbolizing his cautious and feline-like movements amidst political turmoil. Volck, a pro-Confederate cartoonist, uses satire to depict the tension between the North and South during this time. Through clever imagery and symbolism, he highlights the fear and paranoia surrounding Lincoln's journey. The etching showcases not only the artist's skill but also serves as a commentary on the political climate of that era. It reflects how deeply divided America was at this point in history - with Southern states seceding from the Union and tensions escalating towards civil war. This print is not just an artistic representation; it encapsulates a pivotal moment when one man's journey held immense significance for an entire nation. It reminds us of Lincoln's determination to fulfill his duty despite facing grave threats. As we reflect upon this historical event captured in Adalbert Volck's artwork, we are reminded of both the fragility of democracy and our collective responsibility to protect it against all odds.
