Entry of Victor Emmanuel into Naples - sketched in the Toledo by our special artist, Frank Vizetelly, 1860. '...on Wednesday, November 7...both King Victor Emmanuel and Garibaldi entered Naples together...The streets...were festooned with flowers, and evergreens hung from window to window..."Viva Victor Emmanuel!" "Viva Garibaldi!" "Viva Italia Unita!" Such were the cries which rose, not from one, but from a united body of many thousands, who waved their hats and handkerchiefs and flags...I had an admirable view of the King and the Liberator face to face...The difference in the two expressions could not fail to strike the most insensible. I looked at Victor Emmanuel's unvarying face and bold glance, and said - he is the Rè Galantuomo; but I looked on Garibaldi, and felt all the moral grandeur of his character'. From "Illustrated London News", 1860.
