The Uprising of the North by Thomas Nast
Cartoon shows "a night scene. Columbia stands on a balcony draped with the United States flag, with the American Eagle beside her, wings outspread. She brandishes her sword, and below her, mounted knights salute her with drawn swords. In the distance is a wide landscape of mountains, valleys, rivers and lakes--a whole continent--with beacon fires everywhere. In the sky is a vision of the Capitol, with rays of light radiating from it like the aurora borealis
