Description
[Abraham Lincoln]. Anti-McClellan Cartoon. 17" x 13.25", [New York], 1864. An uncredited Currier & Ives lithograph titled "Desperate Peace Man." McClellan watches from a distance, riding his decrepit War Horse. Pendleton, trampling on the American eagle and flag, leads a shackled Columbia and an enslaved man to Jeff Davis, saying, "I bring you willingly everything only give us Peace!" Davis sits on a throne of cotton bales, resting on a foundation of slavery. Robert E. Lee watches with disgust while the Devil advises Davis to keep silent.Condition: Uniformly sunned. Lightly foxed and rubbed. Pencil notation on verso. Two pieces of linen tape with five pieces of paper attachment on verso.
