EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful engraving captures a pivotal moment in the Unification of Italy, as Italian patriot Giuseppe Garibaldi turns the British idea of the Roman Catholic church out of Naples in 1860. The image, originally published in Punch magazine, London, on September 22nd, 1860, is a scathing satire that reflects the nationalist sentiment and political upheaval of the time.
Giuseppe Garibaldi, known for his role in the unification of Italy and his military leadership during various conflicts, is depicted here as a symbol of Italian unity and resistance against foreign influence. In this cartoonish portrayal, he defiantly pushes back against British interference in Italian affairs by rejecting their ideas regarding the Catholic Church.
The engraving not only highlights Garibaldi's determination to free Italy from outside control but also serves as a commentary on the complex relationships between nations and religions during this period. It showcases how art can be used to convey political messages and shape public opinion.
Overall, this print is a striking representation of patriotism, nationalism, and defiance against colonial powers. It reminds us of the struggles faced by Italians in their quest for independence and self-determination.
