EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Southern ass-stock-crazy" offers a thought-provoking glimpse into the political climate of 19th-century America. Created by the American School, this print was published by John T. Ruoff in New York around 1861 during the height of the Civil War. The image portrays an allegorical scene where an ass, representing the Southern states, desperately attempts to break free from a post labeled Union. The South Carolina flag adorns its tail, symbolizing their defiance against federal authority. This powerful visual metaphor captures the tension and struggle between North and South during this tumultuous period in American history. With its intricate details and expertly executed lithography technique, this artwork serves as both a historical document and a satirical commentary on politics at that time. It reflects how deeply divided the nation was over issues such as slavery and state sovereignty. Measuring approximately 19.2x24 cm, this print is part of the vast collection held by the American Antiquarian Society. Its inclusion in Fine Art Finder allows viewers to appreciate not only its artistic value but also gain insights into significant events that shaped our country's past. As we observe this piece today, it reminds us of how art can serve as a powerful tool for social critique and reflection on our shared history.
