EDITORS COMMENTS
Major General Zachary Taylor: A Symbol of Military Heroism and Presidential Ambition This striking full-length portrait of Major General Zachary Taylor, issued in 1847, captures the essence of a man who had become a national hero during the Mexican-American War. The woodcut, likely created with the 1848 U.S. presidential campaign in mind, showcases Taylor's imposing presence and military prowess. Born in Virginia in 1784, Taylor rose through the ranks of the U.S. Army, earning a reputation as a skilled and capable commander. His military career reached new heights during the Mexican-American War, where he led American forces to victory in the Battle of Monterrey and the Battle of Buena Vista. These victories solidified his status as a national hero and set the stage for his presidential bid. The image of Taylor depicted in this woodcut is that of a confident and resolute leader. He stands tall and strong, clad in a military uniform adorned with medals and ribbons. His stern gaze and outstretched hand convey a sense of determination and leadership. The artist has skillfully captured the essence of a man who had proven himself on the battlefield and was now ready to lead the nation. The political climate of the time was ripe for a military hero to step into the role of president. The Mexican-American War had ended just a year prior, and the country was still reeling from the conflict. Many Americans saw Taylor as the man who could bring stability and unity to the nation. His campaign slogan, "Old Rough and Ready," resonated with the public, and he went on to win the presidential election in 1848. This woodcut serves as a powerful reminder of the role that military heroes have played in American history and the enduring appeal of leadership and strength in times of uncertainty.
