EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant lithograph captures the essence of Italy during the Risorgimento, a period of intense political and social change in the 19th century. Created by Mata (Adolfo Matarelli), this allegorical artwork depicts various key figures and symbols that shaped Italy's internal politics during this time. In the center, we see Giuseppe Garibaldi portrayed as Cincinnatus, a Roman hero known for his selfless dedication to his country. Surrounding him are Napoleon III, Pope Pius IX, brigands, priests, and Neapolitan nobles represented as "pazzariello" a traditional Italian clown-like figure. These characters symbolize different aspects of Italian society and their roles in shaping its destiny. The artist skillfully uses color to bring life to this composition. The vivid hues highlight each character's significance while adding depth and energy to the overall image. The Italia Turrita (towered Italy) stands tall in the background, representing national unity and strength. This lithograph serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece. It captures the complex dynamics at play during Italy's struggle for unification – from external influences like Napoleon III to internal divisions between religious authority and revolutionary movements. Ando Gilardi's expert photography preserves this important piece of art history for future generations to appreciate. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded of Italy's resilience and determination throughout its journey towards becoming a unified nation.
