EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Granger Art on Demand showcases an 1877 cartoon created by Thomas Nast, a prominent American illustrator of the time. The image depicts a battered Republican elephant, symbolizing the Republican Party, licking its wounds following what is described as a Pyrrhic victory in the election between Rutherford B. Hayes and Samuel Tilden in 1876. The cartoon alludes to the controversy surrounding this particular election, where twenty disputed electoral votes were ultimately awarded to Hayes. This outcome left both parties wounded and divided. In the picture, we see various elements symbolizing this political turmoil: a bandage representing injuries sustained during the heated campaign, late figures such as Hamilton and Birchard standing near a grave stone suggesting that democracy itself may be at stake. The use of an injured elephant emphasizes how even though Republicans claimed victory, it came at great cost. The presence of crutches further highlights their vulnerability and reliance on external support to maintain power. Nast's artistic prowess shines through his intricate detailing of laurel wreaths representing triumph but also hinting at deceitful tactics employed during canvassing efforts. Overall, this thought-provoking image captures not only the immediate aftermath of an intense political battle but also raises questions about democracy's fragility and integrity during times of dispute within the Electoral College system.
