This engraving captures a significant moment in Italian history - the annexation of Venetia to Italy in 1866. The image showcases the grand entry of King Vittorio Emanuele II, also known as Victor Emmanuel II, into Rovigo. The scene is filled with excitement and anticipation as crowds line the streets, eagerly awaiting their beloved king's arrival. The architecture of the buildings surrounding the street adds to the historical ambiance, transporting us back to this monumental event. King Vittorio Emanuele II stands tall and regal on his horse, exuding power and authority.

The artist Stefano Bianchetti masterfully captures every detail of this historic moment through intricate engravings. From the expressions on people's faces to the ornate decorations adorning balconies and windowsills, each element tells a story. This print serves as a reminder of Italy's struggle for unification and its eventual victory in bringing Venetia under its control. It immortalizes an important chapter in Italian history that shaped its identity as we know it today.
