thomas nast was a 20-year-old german immigrant when the civil war began. he first became famous as an artist for harper's weekly with a drawing called "emancipation," which showed what life might be like for freed slaves. but nast is most remembered for his later work. from the mid-1860s to the 1880s, nast drew editorial cartoons to attack political corruption. he also created the elephant symbol for the `republican party` and the `democrats`' donkey. and it was nast's drawings of `santa claus` as the jolly, red-suited figure handing out gifts from his sleigh that gave the world the modern image we know today.
