Among the many portraits of Andrew Jackson on this board, this one stands out as a color halftone reproduction of a painting, issued as No. 15 in a Famous American Series by the Forbes Lithograph Manufacturing Company of Boston. The title's four labels, lawyer, soldier, statesman and president, sum up a career that took Jackson from frontier courtrooms to the battlefield at New Orleans in 1815 and then to the White House from 1829 to 1837. Commercial prints like this one, made between 1910 and 1940, brought images of national leaders into schools and homes, and this series reflects a period when Americans were eager to see their founders and presidents in affordable form.
