EDITORS COMMENTS
The lithograph print titled "Bubble bursting" captures a satirical depiction of the American political landscape in the 1840s. Published by John Childs in New York and Washington DC, this artwork showcases the work of Edward Williams Clay, an accomplished artist of that era. Measuring 32.5x44.5 cm, this piece is housed at the American Antiquarian Society in Worcester, Massachusetts. The image portrays various prominent politicians of the time, including Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren. The central theme revolves around bubbles emanating from Jackson's small bowl of pap, symbolizing federal funds obtained through corruption or easy jobs. Blair & Kendall are depicted as being led astray into Salt River due to their association with these ill-gotten gains. Van Buren finds himself surrounded by bubbles in Kinderhook Gardens since he was born there. Through clever caricatures and symbolism, this artwork offers a scathing commentary on politics and economics during that period. It highlights issues such as graft and political maneuvering for personal gain. This lithograph serves as a historical artifact providing insight into early American satire and political discourse. Its inclusion within the collection at the American Antiquarian Society further solidifies its significance within our nation's history.
