The vision. Political hydrophobia, shewing the comfort of crowns, and how to obtain them' A crudely drawn but bitter attack on Andrew Jackson's (1767-1845) veto of the re-charter of the Bank of the United States and his subsequent campaign to destroy the Bank. Jackson (right) is a king fiddling on his throne as the Capitol burns in the background. He is attended by Jack Downing, while Vice-President Martin Van Buren peeps out from behind a curtain.
