Jeffersonian Era: A Time of Political Turmoil in the United States (1801-1809) πŸ“… In the picturesque town of Charlottesville, Virginia, three distinguished figures of the early American republic once walked its streets: James Monroe, James Madison, and Thomas Jefferson. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Monroe, the 5th President (1817-1825), is depicted in this photogravure from 1901. Madison, the 4th President (1809-1817), is shown in another photogravure from the same year. And Jefferson, the 3rd President (1801-1809), is immortalized in this oil on canvas painting from 1884. But the political climate during their presidencies was far from peaceful. The Federalist and Democratic-Republican parties clashed fiercely, as seen in these political cartoons from the era. The "MAD TOM IN A RAGE" cartoon from 1801 attacks the Jeffersonian administration. Meanwhile, the "ANTI-FEDERAL CARTOON" from 1793 mocks the Federalist Party. Jeffersonians expressed their disapproval of John Jay's Treaty with England in 1794 by burning and hanging his effigy, as depicted in these engravings from the 19th century. πŸ”₯ The Old Court House in Bowling Green, Virginia, stands as a reminder of the rich history and political intrigue that once unfolded in this region.
