Description
English: Title: Il sogno di Pantagruel

Abstract: Italian political cartoon shows Alexander II, Emperor of Russia, as Pantagruel, asleep in his bed with a doll labeled "Bulgaria" in his arms. He is having a nightmarish dream with frightening visions who demand that he give the doll to them or they will send him flying back to Saint Petersburg. Directly confronting him are insects labeled "Montenegro" and "Serbia", a woman labeled "Grecia" with drawn sword, ghosts labeled "Prussia" and "Rumenia", and a witch labeled "Austria" with a green sprig in her hat and a large snake in her arms, and there is a large lobster labeled "Nikilista" crawling up the blankets toward the doll; at the foot of the bed is a man labeled "Inglese" using a bellows labeled "Oro-Oro" to fan the fires of "Rivoluzione" beneath the emperor's feet. In the upper right, hovering over the emperor's head, are two female figures labeled "Guerra" and "Pace", and there is a frog labeled "Diplomazia" sitting on his nightcap labeled "Russo". In the lower right, between pillows, is a book labeled "Testamento Di Pietro Il Gra" and beneath that are cannonballs or bombs. Physical description: 1 print : chromolithograph ; sheet 41.6 x 59.4 cm.
