EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the Revolutions of 1848, specifically the Five Days of Milan. The painting depicts barricades on corso de porta Vercellina on March 22nd, showcasing the fervent uprising of the Milanese population against Austrian occupation led by Josef Radetzky. The image transports us back to this significant episode during the First Italian Independence War and Risorgimento. It symbolizes the indomitable spirit and determination of the Milanese people as they fought for their freedom and independence. Painted by Felice Donghi in the 19th century, this artwork now resides in Museo Civico di Milano at Palazzo Morando. The composition beautifully captures both chaos and unity, with brave individuals constructing barricades amidst chaotic surroundings. Through this powerful visual representation, we can almost hear echoes of passionate cries for liberty reverberating through time. This historic event marked one of the first episodes within a larger movement that ultimately shaped Italy's path towards unification. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are reminded not only of past struggles but also how they have shaped our present reality. It serves as a poignant reminder that revolutions are often born out of necessity and fueled by unwavering hope for a better future.
