"The Story of the Five Little Pigs"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This Vanity Fair cartoon is based on the children’s nursery rhyme of
the same name. The artist presents Stephen Douglas as the pig who goes to
market, repeating the Charleston Market metaphor of an earlier Vanity Fair
cartoon ("Dancing for Eels…," April 21, 1860). Horace Greeley’s
role at the Chicago Republican convention is criticized by declaring him the pig
who should have stayed home. Abraham Lincoln is the pig who gets roast beef,
that is, the Republican presidential nomination, while the losing candidate
William Henry Seward is the pig who gets none. New York politico Thurlow Weed is
sketched as a weed. James Buchanan is the pig who cried all the way home because
of the investigation by Congressman John Covode, seen as Old Mother Hubbard. |
