| Thomas Nast's illustration for this original wood engraving is entitled, "More 'Pacification' - 'The Carpet-Baggers' are Protected that's Comfort". This satire is a direct criticism upon the alleged political and electoral corruption that occurred during the 1876 presidential election and the 'Compromise of 1877. It appears that the men illustrated here, personify Florida, South Carolina and Louisiana, the last three Southern Sates that were not yet 'Redeemed and where they claimed the electoral fraud occurred. An electoral commission, later known as the 'Compromise of 1877'' settled the disputes and although the Democratic candidate, Samuel J. Tilden originally held the lead in that election, the Republican candidate, Rutherford B. Hayes became the 19th president of the United States. This engraving is printed on nineteenth century wove paper as published for Harper‘s Weekly (Journal of Civilization), by Harper & Brothers, New York on December 22, 1877. This engraving contains the artists name within the right, beneath the bag marked "Animis, Opibusque Parati, S. Carolina", meaning (ready for anything). The Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco contains an impression of More 'Pacification' - 'The Carpet-Baggers' are Protected that's Comfort in its collection. This is a fine, original example of the important art created by the 19th century American artist, Thomas Nast. |
| Title: | More 'Pacification' - 'The Carpet-Baggers' are Protected that's Comfort (Electoral Corruption, 1876 Presidential Election, Samuel Tilden and Rutherford Hayes, The Compromise of 1877) |
| Designer: | Nast, Thomas (Landau, Bavaria, 1840 - Ecuador, 1902) |
| Date: | December 22, 1877 |
| Medium: | Original Wood Engraving |
| Publisher: | Harper & Brothers, New York |
| Publication: | Harper's Weekly, New York |
| Note: | Thomas Nast: Born in Landau, Bavaria, Germany in 1840, Thomas Nast immigrated with his family to America in 1846 at the age of six and settled in New York City. Thomas Nast began work as a full time illustrator at the age of fifteen for Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper. Three years later, Nast contributed his first illustration to Harper's Weekly (1859). That same year, Thomas Nast was hired by the New York Illustrated News and sent to England. During that time, he worked as a war artist following the progress of the Italian war with Giuseppe Garibaldi's army and provided illustrations for the New York Illustrated News and the London Illustrated News. In 1861, Nast returned to New York and in 1862, he began his legendary association with Harper’s, just in time for the outbreak of the American Civil War! The first artist to unreservedly defend the rights of Slaves, Nast launched a series of satirical attacks in his art against the decadent South and its inhumane culture. His political propaganda was so successful in inspiring Union patriotism by humiliating and denigrating the Confederate cause that it prompted none other than President Lincoln to term Nast, “Our best recruiting sergeant.” Throughout his career, Thomas Nast continued his fight for civil rights and the suppression of exploitation, intimidation & violence against African americans, Native Americans, Chinese Americans and immigrants from other countries. He was also a major force in the campaign against political corruption and coercion. In all probability, no man’s art has had a greater social and political impact than that of Thomas Nast. His symbols are with us to this day. He invented the Republican elephant and the Democratic donkey and even our modern day celebration of Christmas and the rotund figure of Santa Claus is due to his art. Thus, through his important art, Thomas Nast influenced the political and social consciousness of 19th century America. He made his last engraving for Harper’s Weekly in 1886. Ending a glorious twenty-five year association. His life came to a close while serving as the American Consul-General in Ecuador. More 'Pacification' - 'The Carpet-Baggers' are Protected that's Comfort. It deals with the alleged political and electoral corruption in the White House during the 1876 presidential election and electoral commission, known as 'The Compromise of 1877'. This is a fine original example of Nast's political satire. |
| More 'Pacification' - 'The Carpet-Baggers' are Protected that's Comfort (Electoral Corruption, 1876 Presidential Election, Samuel Tilden and Rutherford Hayes, The Compromise of 1877): Thomas Nast's political cartoon entitled, More 'Pacification' - 'The Carpet-Baggers' are Protected that's Comfort deals with alleged political and electoral corruption in the White House. The word 'carpetbagger' often referred to Northerners (Yankees), who relocated to the South after the American Civil War in order to profit and exploit the situation. This satire is a direct criticism upon the 'Compromise of 1877'. It appears that these men personify Florida, South Carolina and Louisiana, the last three Southern Sates that were not yet 'Redeemed', (meaning: taken over by white Democrats through intimidation, terror, violence and murder enforced by organizations such as the Knights of the White Camelia, an upper class white supremacy group whose more aggressive members ended up joining the Louisiana 'White League' (which was sometimes linked to the Ku-Klux Klan), and the' Red Shirts', another similar organization established by European-American paramilitary groups acting as the military arm of the Democratic Party in North Carolina and Mississippi). In this image, the carpet-bagger to the right is carrying a bag which reads'; "Animis, Opibusque Parati, S. Carolina", meaning (ready for anything), The fellow in the center is wearing a badge on his lapel that reads' "Hamburg, S. C. - A" (the massacre of six African American militiamen took place in Hamburg, South Carolina). To the left, the carpet-bagger's case depicts an eagle and contains text that reads' "In Conover, is our Trust, Florida". Conover was Florida's Republican Senator Dr. Simon B. Conover (1840-1908). There are several other signs on the wall that read; "Peace and Harmony", "Notice, Gen. (Hamburg) Butler, did not Strike Gilly Patterson. It was Love that did it.". Mathew C. Butler (1836-1919), known as General Butler was the attorney who appeared as council for the white men in the Hamburg Massacre), and Gilly Patterson was the South Carolina Republican Senator, John J. Patterson ( (1830-1912). "The Era of Love in the U. S. Senate" must refer to the 'Compromise of 1877' which among other things, marked the end of the era of 'Reconstruction' and the protection of African Americans in the South enforced by the U.S. Army. This political arrangement left African Americans at the mercy of those who did not believe they deserved or had any rights and unfortunately, they would not enjoy the benefits of Democracy for a century to come. | |
| During the 23rd American presidential election of 1876, there was a major controversy over the electoral returns that were received from Florida, South Carolina and Louisiana during the presidential election. There was also an objection concerning a Republican Elector who held the office of postmaster in Oregon. Due to the allegations of fraud, corruption and coercion by both the Republican and Democratic Parties, Congress was forced to established an electoral commission, later known as the 'Compromise of 1877'. A committee of the two houses (Democrats & Republicans), was formed and given the power to elect the presidential winner once the dispute was settled. A series of compromises were made and although the Democratic candidate, Samuel J. Tilden originally held the lead, the Republican candidate, Rutherford B. Hayes became the 19th president of the United States. One of the compromises they made included the removal of the the federal troops from the South, which effectively ended the Reconstruction and benefited the Democrats in South Carolina, Florida, Louisiana and the rest of the South. After the election, many Democrats were still dissatisfied with the results and on May of 1878 Congress established another commission. It was referred to as the 'Potter Commission' or the 'Potter Committee Investigation', chaired by Clarkson D. Potter, a Democrat from New York. In the end, nothing was proven and the investigation was concluded in favor of the Republicans. The Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco contains an impression of this engraving in its collection. Accession Number: 1963.30.2079. The Macculloch Hall Historical Museum, Morristown contains one of the largest collections of Thomas Nast's original works of art in the United States. | |
| Harper & Brothers: A leading American publishing and printing firm based in New York, 'Harper & Brothers' was originally founded by James Harper (1795-1869) and his brother, John Harper (1797-1875), when they opened their first printing firm as 'J. & J.' in 1817. Later, their two younger brothers, Joseph Wesley Harper (1801-1870), and Fletcher Harper (1806-1877), joined the firm. During the following years, their printing firm flourished. In 1833, 'J. & J.' was renamed as 'Harper & Brothers', and under that name, their firm entered into the publishing business. Harper & Brothers was among the first printing and publishing firms to adopt case binding and to use stereotype and electrotype printing plates and steam - powered printing. It has been noted that by the mid 19th century, 'Harper & Brothers' had become one of the largest printing and publishing firms in the world. | |
| Harper & Brothers Periodicals, Journals & Magazines: During the second half of the nineteenth century, periodicals, journals and magazines such as Harper's Weekly, New York, 'Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper', 'Every Saturday', 'The Aldine', Puck in the United State and 'The Illustrated London News', 'The Illustrated London Almanack', and 'The Graphic', in England, created pictorial journalism on a grand scale. They covered, literature, arts, sciences, sports, social and political events, fashion, and fiction. Wood engraving (invented around 1780) at last made it possible for publishers to print images and words on the same page without the extravagant costs of producing etchings or engravings from metal plates. From about 1850 engraving upon wood became the dominant means of distributing information along with pictorial imagery, and continued in this role until around 1900, when the practical application of photography took control. In addition to being one of the most prestigious printing and publishing firms for books and printed matter commissioned by both national and international firms, 'Harper & Brothers' decided to enter the 'Big Race' for journalistic supremacy. They began to issue their own illustrated periodicals, starting with the launch of their first magazine, originally known as 'Harper's New Monthly Magazine', later known as 'Harper's Magazine'. It was first issued in (1850) and continued to do so into the twenty first century. 'Harper's Magazine' is now published by HarperCollins Publishers LLC. It was originally established as a literary and educational monthly magazine dealing with politics, culture, arts and finance. As their circulation increased it was followed by 'Harper's Weekly (A Journal of Civilization)' (1857-1916), an illustrated and interesting higher toned, better illustrated paper featuring political issues, domestic and foreign news, literary fiction and other stories. More 'Pacification' - 'The Carpet-Baggers' are Protected that's Comfort is an original wood engraving designed by the famous American Satirical artist Thomas Nast in 1882 for 'Harper's Weekly'. In 1867, Harper & Brothers launched their first issue of 'Harper's Bazar', a magazine that is still active today, and is now published by the Hearst Corporation. 'Harper's Bazar', started out as a weekly periodical (magazine), mostly for feminine interests and culture. It was devoted to various departments of literature, fashion and domestic arts and as noted in their 1886 issue "A Repository of Fashion, Pleasures, and instruction". 'Harper & Brothers' offered a subscription to all three publications for only 10.00 dollars a year or any two for 7.00 dollars, and special offers for group subscriptions. They also sold 'Popular Editions' at a higher price and' Household Editions' at a lower price. In 1878, the Franklin Square Library was formed and was renamed 'Harper's Franklin Square Library' in 1881, remaining active until 1893. 'Harper & Brothers' was among of the first to publish a selection of books to help confront and regulate the piracy of their material by rogue printers and publishers. Those books were published under the Harper Franklin Square Library imprint at a loss and were available through subscriptions offered to businesses (Booksellers). In 1879 they began the weekly publication of 'Harper's Young People', an illustrated magazine aimed at America's boys and girls of all ages. The publication contained both instructional and entertaining topics which included a variety of well written stories, poetry, serials, games, and other areas of interest written and illustrated by noted authors and artists. In 1895, 'Harper's Young People' was renamed as 'Harper's Round Table', another well written and illustrated weekly magazine for America's youth, but this one was aimed at an older generation of kids (teenaged boys), priced at five cents a copy or two dollars a year. The last issue of 'Harper's Round Table' was published in 1899. | |
| Harper & Brothers Illustrators: The firm of Harper & Brothers, New York hired some of the finest engravers, illustrators and journalists of the period. Throughout its life, skilled artists maintained a very high level of craftsmanship in their illustrative art, thus, for well over one hundred years, these original engravings have attracted serious collectors who recognize both the historic and artistic value of these images. In fact, one of the first avid collectors of these engravings was Vincent Van Gogh, who, for several years, entertained thoughts of working as an illustrative artist for the publications. American illustrators who contributed works to 'Harper & Brothers' included such distinguished painters and watercolor artists as, Frederick Stuart Church (1842-1924), who began his career as an illustrator for Harper's designing graceful fantasy scenes, many dealing with women, children and animals. Walter Sheila (1838-1909), and Stephen G. McCutcheon, (c. 1846 - 1884) illustrated articles and fiction to such magazines as as Harper's, Scribner's, St. Nicholas and The Century. William Ludwell Sheppard, 'W. L. Sheppard' (1833-1912), is recorded to have illustrated the Southern side of the American Civil War, contributing many of those designs to Harper's and Picturesque America. Winslow Homer (1836-1910), contributed his first of many designs to Harper's Weekly of New York in 1857. Homer's role as a pictorial journalist during the American Civil War is of significant historical importance. The artist, Frederick Dielman (1847-1935), contributed such works as the Celebration of the Abolition of Slavery in the District of Columbia by the Colored People in Washington, Harper's Weekly (1866), and Mirandy Encourages Phil's Talent, Harper's Bazaar (1886). Americas's political cartoonist, Thomas Nast (1840-1902), began his legendary association with Harper's in 1857, just in time for the outbreak of the American Civil War. Nast's famous illustration of Merry Old Santa Claus (1881), which appeared in Harper's Weekly is responsible for our modern day image of Santa. More 'Pacification' - 'The Carpet-Baggers' are Protected that's Comfort and He Wants change Too are striking examples of the illustrations created by Thomas Nast for Harper's Weekly, New York, (Journal of Civilization). During the last part of the nineteenth century and the first quarter of the 20th century another important group of young artists began to appear, such as, Arthur Burdett Frost (1851-1928), an American artist mostly known for his sporting subjects. Frost contributed many illustrations to Harper & Brothers periodicals, such as, An Archery Meeting, Harper's Weekly (1879), Woodcock Shooting, Harper's Weekly (1893), The Sparrow's Christmas Dinner Harper's Bazar (1886), etc. William James Aylward (1875-1956), began his career as an illustrator for both Harper's and Scribner's magazines, creating such as The Christmas-Tree Ship, Harper's Weekly, (1909), The Secret Sharer, Harper's Magazine (1910), Steamboating Through Dixie written and illustrated for Harper's Monthly (1915). And, Harry Everett Townsend (1879-1941) established a strong reputation as a leading illustrator and was regularly commissioned by such popular magazines as Harper's, The Century and McClure's. By 1962, the firm of 'Harper & Brothers' merged with Row, Peterson and Company' and was renamed as 'Harper & Row'. The firm of 'Harper & Row' continued to run under that name until 1990, when it was acquired by William Collins & Sons and renamed as 'HarperCollins'. Today, the firm of HarperCollins remains one of the largest publishing companies in the world. | |
