A New Judgement of Paris, 1862. Artist: John Tenniel
A New Judgement of Paris, 1862. Mr. Punch says: Surely, My Dear Emperor, You Cannot Doubt Which is The Right Man for Italy. This cartoon refers to Garibaldis plan to conquer Rome. He had come out of his retirement and had built a volunteer army in Sicily. Rattazzi, the Italian prime minister, decided that Garibaldi must be stopped. In August 1862, Garibaldis army was defeated at Aspromonte. Garibaldi was injured but his English supporters sent over a top surgeon to extract the bullet from his leg. The Italians had been very disappointed by Napoleons failure to honour his promise to free Italy. Napoleon had proposed to withdraw his soldiers from Rome, an announcement which considerably worried the Pope. Here, Mr Punch asks whether Napoleon had any real choice between the best man to lead Rome; the ineffectual and encumbered Pope Pius IX, shown here with all the heavy accoutrements of his office, or the lean and competent Garibaldi. From Punch, or the London Charivari, August 30, 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "A New Judgement of Paris, 1862" artist John Tenniel skillfully captures the political turmoil surrounding Garibaldi's plan to conquer Rome. The cartoon depicts Mr. Punch engaging in a thought-provoking conversation with Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte III, questioning his doubt regarding the right man for Italy. During this period, Garibaldi had emerged from retirement and formed a volunteer army in Sicily, aiming to unify Italy under one rule. However, Italian Prime Minister Rattazzi saw Garibaldi as a threat and sought to halt his progress. As fate would have it, Garibaldi's army suffered defeat at Aspromonte in August 1862. Despite this setback, Garibaldi's English supporters rallied behind him and sent over a skilled surgeon to extract the bullet lodged in his leg. Meanwhile, disappointment lingered among Italians due to Napoleon's failure to fulfill his promise of freeing Italy from foreign control. The cartoon raises an important question: did Napoleon truly have any choice when it came to selecting the leader for Rome? On one hand stands Pope Pius IX burdened by the weighty trappings of his office but lacking effectiveness; on the other stands the lean and capable figure of Garibaldi. Through Tenniel's artistry and wit showcased in "A New Judgement of Paris" we are reminded of the complex dynamics that shaped Italian politics during this time – a struggle between tradition and progress that ultimately paved the way for Italy's unification.
