DescriptionCol. Fremont planting the American standard on the Rocky Mountains LCCN2003689276.tif |
English: Title: Col. Fremont planting the American standard on the Rocky Mountains
Abstract: Proof for a large woodcut campaign banner or poster for John C. Fremont, Republican presidential contender in 1856. Fremont is shown in full-length on a mountain peak, planting an American flag. He is clad in fringed trousers and military coat and waves a visored cap in the air. Below, at right, are a bearded trapper or fellow explorer and a Mexican wearing a wide-brimmed hat. An eagle soars in the air beyond them. This scene and that in no. 1856-4 are no doubt intended to evoke heroic memories of Fremont's famous exploring expeditions to the Rocky Mountains in 1842 and 1843. Physical description: 1 print on wove paper: wood engraving with letterpress ; image 44.6 x 56 cm. Notes: "Entered ... 1856, by Baker & Godwin ... Southern District of New York."; The Library's impression of the print was deposited for copyright on July 12, 1856; Published in: American political prints, 1766-1876 / Bernard F. Reilly.
