NAST - TWEED's DOWNFALL - Thomas Nast's Powerful Commentary on Corruption and Justice
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print titled "NAST: TWEED's DOWNFALL" takes us back to the year 1871 in America, where political corruption was rampant. The image depicts a cartoon by the renowned artist Thomas Nast, who used his artistry as a weapon against injustice. In this particular piece, Nast focuses on the downfall of William M. Boss Tweed, a notorious figure in New York City politics during that era. Tweed had built an empire of corruption known as the Tweed Ring, which controlled both city and state elections through fraudulent means. Nast's cartoon is a scathing commentary on Tweed's reign of crime and greed. It portrays him as an employer of chaos and corruption, surrounded by symbols representing his corrupt allies within Tammany Hall.

It stands as a testament to the enduring power of art to shape public opinion and
