EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant lithograph cartoon from 1836 captures the essence of a heated presidential campaign. Depicting four prominent candidates, it offers a fascinating glimpse into American politics during that era. The central figure is William Henry Harrison, the Whig Party candidate and eventual winner of the election. He stands tall and confident, exuding strength and determination. Surrounding Harrison are three other notable figures: Martin Van Buren, Daniel Webster, and Hugh Lawson White. Van Buren, the incumbent president seeking re-election as a Democrat, appears slightly anxious while trying to maintain his composure amidst fierce competition. Webster represents another faction within the Whig Party and presents himself as an alternative choice for voters. Lastly, White adds further complexity to this political landscape with his own distinct platform. The artist skillfully captures each candidate's personality through their facial expressions and body language. This lithograph serves not only as a historical artifact but also as a testament to the artistry of Henri van Willigen Jr. , who masterfully brought these men to life on paper. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back in time to witness an important moment in American democracy—a snapshot of intense canvassing efforts by these four individuals vying for one of the highest offices in our nation: President of the United States.
