Another venomous attack on the Lincoln
administration by the artist of "The Commander-in-Chief Conciliating the
Soldier's Votes, no. 1864-31," and "The Sportsman Upset by the Recoil
of His Own Gun," (no. 1864-32). Here Lincoln and his cabinet are shown in a
disorderly backstage set, preparing for a production of Shakespeare's
"Othello."
