EDITORS COMMENTS
This satirical lithograph from 1896 captures the essence of the American presidential election campaign through the allegorical figure of Farmer William McKinley. In the image, McKinley is depicted taking off his coat, symbolizing his readiness to tackle the pressing issues facing the nation at that time.
The artist, William Allen Rogers, uses this clever visual metaphor to comment on McKinley's approach to addressing problems such as anarchy, populism, and devaluation of money during his campaign. By portraying him as a hardworking farmer rolling up his sleeves (or in this case, taking off his coat), Rogers highlights McKinley's perceived willingness to confront these challenges head-on.
Through its sharp wit and political commentary, this illustration offers a glimpse into the contentious atmosphere of late 19th-century American politics. It serves as a reminder of how art has long been used as a tool for social critique and satire in times of political upheaval.
As we reflect on this historical piece today, it prompts us to consider how far we have come in our understanding and representation of presidential campaigns – while also reminding us that some themes remain timeless in their relevance.
