About this work
A wood-engraved political cartoon by Thomas Nast, dated 1871, shows a top-hatted figure with a pipe and cleaver standing over a goose labeled Democratic Party on a table. Behind him, shelves hold eggs inscribed with phrases such as Public Money and Sectarian Funds, while a startled robed figure with clasped hands watches from the right.
