EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Capture of Jeff. Davis (Puss in boots! What boots it?)" captures a moment of both tragedy and comedy during the American Civil War. Published by E. B. & E. C. Kellogg, Hartford and F. P. Whiting, New York around 1865, this lithograph measures 30.3x21.6 cm and is housed at the American Antiquarian Society in Worcester, Massachusetts.

One soldier lifts up Davis' dress while another playfully adjusts his headdress as his wife looks on with amusement. This satirical portrayal showcases the final fizzle of Confederate chivalry after the tragic events of war have unfolded. It highlights themes of disguise and cross-dressing as well as political commentary on the state of America during that time.
