"Right Leg in the Boot at Last"




Analyzing Political Cartoons:

In this 1860 British cartoon, the king of Sardinia is receiving control of lands taken by the nationalist Garibaldi. This act was one of the final steps in the unification of Italy.

1. What symbol does the cartoonist use for the soon-to-be nation of Italy?
2. How is Garibaldi portrayed?
3. What does the title of the cartoon say about the cartoonist's view of Italian unification?
