EDITORS COMMENTS
Hallelujah for the Constitution of 1812!" exclaims General Riego in this powerful and iconic cartoon titled "Hallelujah of the Constitution of 1812," on display at the Municipal History Museum of Cadiz in Spain. This contemporary 19th-century print captures the fervor and excitement of the Spanish liberal revolution that began in Andalusia in 1812, led by General Riego and his followers. The scene depicts Riego, dressed in military uniform, standing atop a barrel and raising his arms in jubilation as he reads aloud the pronouncement of the new constitution. Surrounding him are a diverse group of supporters, including politicians, soldiers, and citizens, all expressing their approval and excitement for the new liberal government. In the background, the symbols of the old regime, such as the crown and the cross, are being toppled, symbolizing the end of the old order and the beginning of a new era. The cartoon references the events of the "Triennium Liberal" (1820-1823), a period of political and social upheaval in Spain, marked by the proclamation of the Constitution of 1812 and the establishment of a liberal government. The revolution began in the southern city of Cadiz, where Riego and his followers, inspired by the ideas of the French Revolution, rose up against the absolutist rule of King Ferdinand VII. The revolution spread throughout Spain, leading to the establishment of a constitutional monarchy and the end of the old regime. This cartoon, produced during the height of the revolution, serves as a visual testament to the power of the people to bring about change and the importance of constitutional government. It is a reminder of the pivotal role that Andalusia and the city of Cadiz played in the history of Spain and the world, and the enduring legacy of the liberal revolution.
