Luckovich's cartoons are always bad but I don't share them in this comm because they don't have that slop special sauce. My man is on a roll.

Liberty Leading the People

Liberty Leading the People is a painting of the Romantic era by the French artist Eugène Delacroix, commemorating the July Revolution of 1830 that toppled King Charles X (r. 1824–1830). A bare-breasted "woman of the people" with a Phrygian cap personifying the concept and Goddess of Liberty, accompanied by a young boy brandishing a pistol in each hand, leads a group of various people forward over a barricade and the bodies of the fallen while holding aloft the flag of the French Revolution—the tricolour, which again became France's national flag after these events—in one hand, and brandishing a bayonetted musket with the other. The figure of Liberty is also viewed as a symbol of France and the French Republic known as Marianne.

The painting is sometimes wrongly thought to depict the French Revolution of 1789.

I can't wait for CHUDs to claim this cartoon is still a call for far-left violence since everyone was carrying guns in the original
