title: GARIBALDINI VOLUNTEERS OF THE THIRD WAR OF INDEPENDENCE

subject date: 2010-09-08

caption: THIRD WAR OF INDEPENDENCE Extraordinary example in mixed technique of photomosaic with concentric circles commemorating the 25th anniversary of the Battle of Vezza d'Oglio on 4 July 1866, composed of the portraits of Garibaldi volunteers who fell during the III War of Independence, identified by number that distinguishes each photo portrait. The only existing example, in a bad state of conservation but extremely suggestive. Above, isolated, the photo of Garibaldi with the words "Obbedisco"; in the center on the right a hand-painted funerary triumph, and on the left a composition of commemorative monuments, places and battle scenes. Also included is a fragment of a score with music and words from a Garibaldian hymn. From this prototype the plate for serial printing should have been obtained. Many portraits bear the mark of the painter and photographer "Giulio Rossi, Milan". Italy, 1891
