Description
George Caleb Bingham (1811-1879)
Canvassing for a Vote
1853
The toned lithograph with applied color printed by Claude Regnier and published by M. Knoedler & Co. after the painting from Bingham's Election Series.
The composition was drafted at the doorway of the tavern in Arrowrock, Missouri. The tavern remains there today. The painting's symbolism is timeless as well. For instance, the metaphor of storm clouds in the distance and the simmering dispute over slavery, the horse's rear end near the politician and the indifference of the sleeping dog near the citizen.
Sheet measures 15 x 18.25, frame size 20.75 x 25 inches.
We happily provide seamless in-house packing and shipping services on nearly everything we sell.
