Answer:

1. Nast would portray Tweed as a corrupt politician by using propaganda in his cartoons.

2. Cartoon #2 ("Under the Thumb," June 1871) shows New York being crushed by Tweed's thumb, which in turn shows that Tweed was trying to "crush" the fair system of New York politics.

3. The effect that Nast wanted these cartoons to have on his audience was to show that Tweed was evil.

4. One detail I can point is the thumb on cartoon #2, which I explained in detail on #2. Another detail is on cartoon #3, with the board on the right side. What that shows is how Tweed pretty much took over the state's education. (Note how Tweed's name is spelt "Sweed.") Cartoon #1 shows how greedy Tweed was, doing his actions just for money. And lastly, Cartoon #4 functions as a metaphor for the Tammany Hall, showing how dominant it was over New York.

Explanation:

I have a 5th cartoon (shown below), which shows Tweed's power over the ballot box. But anyway, these cartoons were one of the main factors that lead to Tweed's downfall, and he was eventually imprisoned in November 1873. The sentence was originally 12 years, but was later reduced to one year. However, the following year, NY State filed a civil suit against Tweed, trying to recover $6 million in embezzled funds. Not being able to put up with the $3 million bail, Tweed was locked up in the Ludlow Street Jail, although he was allowed home visits. During one of those visits on December 4, 1875, Tweed escaped & flew to Spain. However, the U.S. government discovered his whereabouts and arranged for his arrest once he reached the Spanish border after he was recognized from Nast's political cartoons. Tweed was turned over to the USS <em>Franklin</em>, which delivered him to NYC authorities on November 23, 1876 and he was put back into prison, where he would die in 1878.

Rococo and Neoclassicism are two different styles in European art. Rococo is a style of the 18th century. In Rococo paintings, the subjects are often the loves of the Greek gods, loosely painted with attention to highlights and shadows and not so much to clear outlines or textures. In Neoclassical paintings, the subjects may be the stern moral lessons of Roman history, painted with crisp contours and contrasting textures
