EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant historical monument - the Column commemorating the place where Italian patriot Nazario Sauro was tragically killed. The photograph was taken during Italy's reign in Istria, Croatia, specifically at the Military Prison in Pula. The image transports us back to the early 20th century, between 1920 and 1930, when this powerful structure stood as a testament to Sauro's sacrifice for his beloved country. The column itself is an architectural marvel, adorned with intricate low relief sculptures that depict scenes of bravery and heroism. As we gaze upon this solemn scene, we are reminded of the weighty history that surrounds it. This prison served as a judicial institution during Italy's control over Istria, symbolizing their authority over these territories. It stands not only as a reminder of Sauro's martyrdom but also represents the complex dynamics between nations and populations throughout contemporary history. Alinari Fratelli skillfully captured this momentous sight through their lens. Their attention to detail allows us to appreciate every aspect of this commemorative work: from its grandeur to its symbolism. Through their photography, they have immortalized both the physicality and significance of this column for generations to come. This remarkable print serves as a window into our shared past - one filled with struggles for independence and national identity. It reminds us that even within prisons' confines, stories of courage can emerge; stories like Nazario Sauro's resonate across time and remind us all of our capacity for resilience in pursuit of freedom.
