Summary
| Description |
English: Nast’s target in this cartoon was James Gordon Bennett, Jr., the wealthy, conceited, autocratic editor of the Herald. Nast went after Bennett with a vengeance, using Shakespeare to fight Shakespeare, portraying him 30 times before the end of Ulysses S. Grant’s Presidency, usually as an ass (Bottom, the weaver) from A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Here, Nast tormented Bennett with his own “Sweet Music” played on a harp (Harper’s Weekly), with his sheet music containing an ass-headed Caesarism scarecrow. Published in Harper's Weekly, November 8, 1873 (Pg 992) |
