EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Risorgimento" offers a satirical portrayal of the heroes of the Risorgimento, particularly Giuseppe Garibaldi, during a significant political controversy known as the Roman Question. The artwork depicts Garibaldi, an Italian patriot and representative, engaging in a symbolic act by playfully jumping over a cardinal who represents the temporal power of the Pope and Rome's role as both the spiritual center and capital of Italy. Created by an anonymous Italian artist from the 19th century, this print captures the essence of Italian Unity in 1861 when Rome became part of the new kingdom. It showcases how political tensions surrounding religion and governance were addressed during this transformative period. The use of satire in this artwork adds depth to its interpretation. By depicting Garibaldi as a sheep jumping over a cardinal, it highlights his determination to challenge traditional authority figures while also emphasizing his playful nature. This visual metaphor conveys that even though serious political controversies existed at that time, there was room for humor and lightheartedness amidst these struggles. Preserved within a private collection, this print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical artifact. Its intricate details invite viewers to reflect on Italy's past while appreciating its rich cultural heritage.
