EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic monument to Giuseppe Garibaldi in the Rotonda dei Mille, located in the charming city of Bergamo. The monument itself holds a significant historical value as it was moved here from Piazza Vecchia in 1922, symbolizing the enduring legacy of one of Italy's most revered national heroes. Giuseppe Garibaldi, a prominent figure during the Risorgimento movement in the 19th century, played a pivotal role in uniting Italy and shaping its contemporary history. This photograph not only showcases his memorial but also provides a glimpse into Europe's rich artistic heritage with its depiction of arts and handicrafts from that era. The image transports us back to 1885 when this stunning artwork was created. Its intricate details and craftsmanship are evident even through the lens of time. As we admire this masterpiece, we can't help but marvel at how it has stood strong for over a century, witnessing countless changes within Bergamo and beyond. In addition to highlighting Garibaldi's monumental presence, this print also features an intriguing lion statue nearby. This terrestrial mammal adds another layer of symbolism to the composition - representing strength, courage, and perhaps even echoing Garibaldi's own indomitable spirit. Alinari Fratelli skillfully captured this momentous scene around 1922 when photography was still evolving as an art form. Their expertise allows us today to appreciate not only the historical significance but also relish in their ability to transport us back through time. As we gaze upon this remarkable image print by Alinari Fratelli, we are reminded of both our shared European heritage and our collective journey towards progress throughout history.
