EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in Italian history - the death of Vittorio Emanuele II, the first ruler of United Italy. The image shows newsboys eagerly selling papers on the streets, announcing the passing of this influential leader in 1878.
Vittorio Emanuele II played a crucial role in unifying Italy and establishing it as a modern nation-state. His death marked the end of an era and left a profound impact on the people of Italy.
The scene depicted in this photograph is filled with emotion and activity, as newsboys do a roaring trade in papers bearing the somber news. The atmosphere is palpable, conveying both sadness and curiosity among those who are eager to learn more about this momentous event.
As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are reminded of the power that newspapers once held in disseminating important information to the public. In an age before digital media dominated our lives, these physical prints were instrumental in shaping public opinion and spreading news far and wide.
Through this print from Mary Evans Prints Online, we are transported back to 1878 Italy, where a nation mourned the loss of its beloved ruler. It serves as a poignant reminder of how events like these can shape our collective memory and leave lasting impressions for generations to come.
