Trente Italienne; Les vestiges de la fuite autrichienne autour du monument du Dante
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Thirty Italians; The Remnants of the Austrian Retreat Around the Monument of Dante), 1918, is an evocative photograph that captures the aftermath of the Italian victory in Trento, Italy during the First World War. The image, from L'Album de la Guerre 1914-1919, Volume 2 by L'Illustration, Paris, 1924, shows a group of thirty Italian soldiers standing triumphantly around the monument of Dante Alighieri. The monument, located in the heart of Trento, had been a symbol of Austrian rule in the region. The photograph captures the moment of victory, with the Italian soldiers proudly posing around the monument, some with their arms raised in victory, others with their hands on their hips or resting on their rifles. The scene is one of jubilation and relief, as the Italian army had only recently taken control of the city after a fierce battle. In the background of the photograph, the remnants of the Austrian retreat can be seen. The streets are littered with debris and the remnants of destroyed buildings. The once proud Austrian flag, now tattered and torn, hangs limply from a pole. The contrast between the victorious Italian soldiers and the devastation of the city around them is stark. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the human cost of war, as well as the shifting political landscape of Europe in the aftermath of the First World War. The image has become an important historical document, capturing a moment in time that helped shape the future of Italy and Europe. Despite the unknown photographer, the photograph remains a powerful and evocative image that continues to resonate with viewers today.
