EDITORS COMMENTS
Anders Leonard Zorn's captivating etching, "Grover Cleveland II" (1899), showcases the 27th President of the United States, Stephen Grover Cleveland, in a thoughtful and introspective moment. Seated in a high-backed chair, Cleveland dons a formal suit and dress shirt, the crisp fabric revealing the intricacies of Zorn's masterful etching technique on ivory laid paper. The black-and-white image, reminiscent of the 19th century, transports us to a time of political intrigue and societal elegance. Cleveland, known for his pragmatic approach to politics, served two non-consecutive terms as President of the United States, making him the only president to do so. Prior to his political career, he practiced law in New York and Ohio. In this portrait, the president is depicted as a statesman, his serious expression conveying the weight of responsibility that came with the office. The artistic movement of realism, popular during the late 19th century, is evident in Zorn's meticulous attention to detail, from the textures of Cleveland's clothing to the intricate patterns of the chair's upholstery. Zorn's Scandinavian heritage is also reflected in the image, with the clean lines and precise execution characteristic of his style. This etching, now part of the permanent collection at the Art Institute of Chicago, invites us to reflect on the legacy of a president who left a lasting impact on American history. The image serves as a reminder of the rich heritage of art and political history that continues to shape our world today.
