English: Title: Ostacoli alpinistici
Abstract: Italian political cartoon shows representatives of many of the nations involved in the Congress of Berlin and the subsequent Treaty of Berlin; they are each pursuing their own paths to peace through the mountains. On the left, a Russian man is huddled against the wall of a narrow mountain pass labeled "Russo" during a rockslide with some stones labeled "Batum" and "Rodope", the pass is blocked by a large white bull labeled "Orninete" and a large rock labeled "Armenia". An Italian man is using his staff to fight off a two-headed vulture with a sword in one claw and "Pane" in the other; on a cliff above them is a Frenchman lying on the grass consulting his guidebook. In the lower center, a Turkish man is struggling to climb a large rock labeled "Turchia", and at top center is a man wearing a spiked helmet, sitting on a peak labeled "Prussiano", he is looking through a telescope. At right center is a man standing on rocks labeled "Inglese", taking a long drink from a bottle labeled "Cipro", ahead of him on the trail is a man resting on rocks labeled "Portocallo" with a braying donkey behind him; and at top center is a man sleeping on rocks labeled "Spagna" with an owl resting on his back. On the right is an Austrian man entangled with snakes labeled "Bosnia", "Serbia", "Trieste", "Trentino", and "Erzegovina", he is standing on rocks labeled "Austria"; further along the mountain is a man on rocks labeled "Rumeno" crawling from under a large rock labeled "Cessione della Bessarabia"; and at top right is a man standing on a mountain trail labeled "Greco", he appears to be hampered by bugs buzzing around a horn-shaped stone labeled "Questione della Tessaglia". In spite of the Treaty of Berliln, the road to peace still involved many obstacles. Physical description: 1 print : chromolithograph ; sheet 41.6 x 59.8 cm.
