Mitre and Tejedor
Argentina's Bartolomé Mitre and Carlos Tejedor (depicted as a yapping dog, all bark and no bite) awaken a slumbering giant (Brazil) resting on a lion (the Brazilian people). Cartoon in Rio de Janeiro's satirical magazine Semana Illustrada. Both Mitre and the Indian (described as a "sentinel") appear to carry pens. Mitre, himself a journalist, owned the Argentine newspaper La Nación. Thus, the Indian sentinel would appear to personify the Brazilian press.
