EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "HARTFORD CONVENTION, c1814. Leap or no leap" captures a significant moment in American history. The cartoon, created by William Charles, serves as a satirical portrayal of Thomas Pickering and the radical secessionist movement discussed at the Hartford Convention. During this time, secret meetings were held by New England Federalists in 1814 to discuss their grievances and potential secession from the United States. This political engraving depicts Pickering kneeling in prayer while contemplating whether to take a leap towards British influence or remain loyal to America. The image showcases an ocean backdrop symbolizing the vast divide between these two options. It also includes references to King George III of Britain and George Washington's portrait on the wall, representing contrasting loyalties. This artwork sheds light on the turbulent period known as the War of 1812 when tensions ran high between Britain and America. The convention itself was seen as controversial, with some accusing its participants of treasonous intentions. Overall, this print offers insight into early American politics and highlights one man's struggle with allegiance during a critical juncture in our nation's history.
