The Old Barracks stand as silent witnesses to the stories of heroism, sacrifice, and resilience that have unfolded within their walls. On this day, we commemorate the Battle of Ortigara, as more than six thousand Alpine pilgrims embark on a journey to pay homage to those who fought valiantly for their country. The vibrant colours of a lithograph capture the essence of this pilgrimage, reflecting the deep reverence and gratitude felt by all. Another lithograph portrays an extraordinary act of bravery - an infantry captain fearlessly confronting and disarming a soldier consumed by murderous mania. In this moment, courage triumphs over chaos, reminding us that even in times of darkness, there are individuals who rise above it all. Amidst harsh climates and unforgiving conditions, Italian soldiers from the Murmansk contingent defy all odds. Their unwavering determination shines through another colourful lithograph depicting their presence despite adversity. It serves as a testament to their commitment and loyalty towards protecting their homeland. A mysterious episode unfolds in China captured vividly in yet another lithograph. Its enigmatic nature leaves us intrigued and curious about what transpired during that time. The image invites us into a world where secrets lie hidden beneath layers of history. A bold shot showcases Gondarini's hand - an emblematic symbol representing strength and unity among comrades-in-arms. This powerful image resonates with pride as it encapsulates the spirit of camaraderie shared by those who serve together. Triumphant news arrives from Tripolitania through vibrant colours on yet another lithograph; victory is celebrated anew. It reminds us that amidst conflicts and struggles lies hope for peace and prosperity. However, not all tales end happily; tragedy strikes Bucharest in a chilling massacre depicted in haunting colour tones on canvas. We are reminded once again of the sacrifices made by brave soldiers who lay down their lives for others' freedom. In Winterthur, Switzerland, the Old Barracks stand tall in a black and white photograph.
