Description: This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the grandeur and history of Plaza Italia, located in the heart of Santiago, Chile. The image, taken circa 1940, showcases the massive roundabout, anchored by the impressive equestrian statue of General Manuel Baquedano. The statue, which sits atop a high plinth, depicts the Chilean military leader on horseback, dressed in his full military regalia. Baquedano, who lived from 1823 to 1897, played a pivotal role in the Chilean Wars of the Late 19th Century, securing Chile's independence and territorial expansion. The statue, a symbol of national pride, stands as a testament to the country's rich history and the military victories that shaped its identity. The Plaza Italia roundabout, now a major transportation hub, is home to the Baquedano Metro Station, making it a popular gathering place for locals and tourists alike. 3.
