EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "New Deal: Supreme Court" captures a significant moment in American history. The image features an English cartoon by L. G. Illingworth, created in 1937 for Punch magazine. It depicts the newly-reelected President Franklin D. Roosevelt's plan to add up to six justices to the U. S. Supreme Court, known as the "Line of Least Resistance". In this thought-provoking artwork, Illingworth portrays a park-like setting with a carousel labeled "Supreme Court". Men representing various political acts are seen riding on the carousel horses, symbolizing their influence over the court's decisions. This cartoon reflects the controversy surrounding FDR's attempt to pack the Supreme Court with his own appointees, which was met with strong opposition from both sides of the political spectrum. The artist cleverly uses satire and symbolism to convey how Roosevelt sought to reshape America's highest judicial body in order to push forward his New Deal policies. The image serves as a reminder of how politics can intersect with entertainment and public opinion during critical moments in history. It highlights not only Roosevelt's determination but also sheds light on broader themes such as democracy and power dynamics within government institutions. This print offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on past events that have shaped our nation while raising questions about checks and balances within our democratic system.
