  • Thomas Nast 1840–1902
    Name _____________________________ Class _________________ Date __________________ Life at the Turn of the 20th Century Biography Thomas Nast 1840–1902 WHY HE MADE HISTORY Thomas Nast has been called the father of modern American political cartooning. He is best known for his cartoons exposing the corruption of Boss Tweed’s political machine. As you read the biography below, think about how Thomas Nast influenced public opinion. How did he use images to communicate? CORBIS © By the late 1800s the governments of most major cities were run by political machines. These informal groups of professional politicians controlled local government. Often these politicians were corrupt and abused the public trust. Thomas Nast, a political cartoonist, exposed the corruption of one of the biggest political machines of his day. His drawings led to the downfall of Boss Tweed’s Tammany Hall political machine. Thomas Nast was born in Germany in 1840, the son of a musician. His family immigrated to the U.S. and settled in New York City when he was six years old. Nast studied art at the National Academy of Design. At the age of 15, he was hired as a staff artist for Frank Leslie’s Illustrated Newspaper. By the time he was 18, Nast was a freelance artist for Harper’s Weekly and the New York Illustrated News. In 1862 Harper’s Weekly hired Nast to draw images of the Civil War. His editors hoped he would draw realistic battle scenes. Instead, Nast drew images that supported the Union and opposed slavery. Nast distorted and exaggerated the physical traits of his subjects to convey strong social and political messages.

    NO LAUGHING MATTER: XENOPHOBIA AND ANTI-RADICALISM IN EARLY AMERICAN POLITICAL CARTOONS by BIANCA RENEE BISSON A THESIS Presented to the Department of Political Science and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2014 An Abstract of the Thesis of Bianca Renee Bisson for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of Political Science to be taken June 2014 Title: No Laughing Matter: Xenophobia and Anti-Radicalism in Early American Political Cartoons Approved: __d_---l ~--~--------- Anita Chari While political cartoons have a reputation for upholding the tenants of democracy and freedom, the editorial images of the late 19th century and early 20th century show quite the contrary. In fact, they promote elements of early American life such as racism, misogyny and anti-radicalism, and make negative statements about the aspects of society that did not conform to conservative White Anglo-Saxon Protestantism. [j Acknowledgements First of all, I would like to thank my thesis advisors, Professors Anita Chari, Alison Gash, and Casey Shoop. Professor Chari is a wonderful instructor, whose class on radical political theory motivated me to continually think critically about the world. Professor Gash teaches in a captivating way that drove me to question the status quo from a legal perspective. Professor Shoop, though I have not had the chance to take a class from him, made me feel at ease and comfortable despite the often high demands of the Clark Honors College. I would also like to thank my parents for supporting my education from afar and my friends for creating a safe and warm environment to come home to at the end of a long day of studying.

  • Yeats at Petitpas' 1910/C
    National Gallery of Art NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART ONLINE EDITIONS American Paintings, 1900–1945 John Sloan American, 1871 - 1951 Yeats at Petitpas' 1910/c. 1914 oil on canvas overall: 66.2 × 81.28 cm (26 1/16 × 32 in.) framed: 80.96 × 96.36 × 6.51 cm (31 7/8 × 37 15/16 × 2 9/16 in.) Inscription: lower right: John Sloan Corcoran Collection (Museum Purchase, Gallery Fund) 2014.136.54 ENTRY In August 1910 the realist painter John Sloan began this group portrait of regulars at Petitpas’, a French restaurant and boardinghouse in the Chelsea district of Manhattan. The work joined other Ashcan school artists’ depictions of casual dining experiences in urban eateries that focused on portraiture and narrative, such as At Mouquin’s by William Glackens (American, 1870 - 1938) [fig. 1]. [1] The Ashcan school, informally led by Robert Henri (American, 1865 - 1929), generally focused on the everyday life of the working classes rather than idealized views of the city. George Luks (American, 1866 - 1933) and George Bellows (American, 1882 - 1925) completed a watercolor and a print, respectively, featuring Petitpas’ as well [fig. 2], but Sloan’s large image in oil is the most ambitious of the three. [2] The scene takes place in the enclosed backyard of the restaurant, where the dining room was located in the hot summer months. The party gathers around a table placed under an awning decorated with a French flag. [3] At the head sits John Butler Yeats, smoking and sketching. Yeats, the Irish portrait painter and father of the poet William Butler Yeats, lived at Petitpas’ from 1909 until his death in 1922.

  • THE MUSEUM of MODERN ART Jl^^L-MS^&D STREET, NEW YORK 19, N
    THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART jl^^l-MS^&D STREET, NEW YORK 19, N. Y. TELEPHONE: CIRCLE 5-8900 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE EXHIBITION OF AMERICAN BATTLE PAINTING OPENS AT MUSEUM OF MODERN ART Under the auspices of the Armed Services Program of the Museum of Modern Art an exhibition of American Battle Painting; 1776-1918 will be held at the Museum from September 27 through November 12. Planned in collaboration with the National Gallery of Art in Washington, the exhibition reveals the continuing American tradition, from the Revolutionary War through World War I, of the use of artists to record war. For the many contemporary American artists who are now inter­ preting their nation's bitterest struggle, it is hoped that American Battle Painting; 1776-1918 will provide encouragement, as the exhibi­ tion demonstrates the overwhelming documentary value of our visual records of past wars and emphasizes the need of preserving the chronicles made by artists of the present war. The exhibition was assembled by Pvt. Lincoln Kirstein, now in service in France, and by Mrs. Margaret D. Garrett of the staff of the National Gallery in Washington. The exhibition includes paintings by Trumbull, Peale, Eastman Johnson, Winslow Homer, David Blythe, Conrad Wise Chapman, Alfred Sully, Remington, Sargent, Henry N. Walke, Adalbert Johann Volck, Slackens, Peixotto, Wallace Morgan, Harvey T. Dunn, Kerr Eby and others. George Harding, who is now a combat artist with the Marines, is represented by a drawing made when he was an official artist in World War 1. A study for the picture which generations of American school children have known—George Washington Crossing the Delaware—will also be shown.
