Brigham Young - A Controversial Leader Charging Against the Odds
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This lithograph, titled "Brigham Young from Behind his Breastworks Charging the United States Troops" offers a glimpse into a tumultuous period in American history. Depicting Brigham Young, the second prophet and president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, it portrays an intense moment during the Utah War. President James Buchanan's decision to send troops to replace Brigham Young as Governor of Utah is highlighted here. The cartoonist presents Mormons as polygamists and traitors, reflecting prevalent stereotypes at that time. It is worth noting that this artwork was created during an era when satire played a significant role in shaping public opinion. The image also sheds light on Brigham Young's personal life, showcasing his controversial practice of polygamy. With 56 wives and 56 children attributed to him, he stands not only as a religious leader but also as a symbol representing Mormon traditions and beliefs. Through this lithograph, we witness Brigham Young charging forward with determination against what seems like insurmountable odds – the might of the United States troops. This portrayal encapsulates both bravery and defiance in the face of adversity. As we explore this historical artifact from behind its breastworks, let us reflect upon how perceptions have evolved over time while acknowledging that art can be both informative and thought-provoking.
