title: COAT OF ARMS OF ROME

subject date: 2022-09-09

state: Milano

caption: SPQR - Romulus and Remus suckled by the Capitoline She-wolf in the mosaic of the flooring in the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan. The coat of arms represents the city of Rome, among the four that surround the Savoy coat of arms in the central octagon, together with the coat of arms of Milan and of the other two cities that in the Risorgimento held the role of capital of Italy: Turin and Florence. Subjected to numerous restorations and reconstructions due to wear and damage from the bombings, the mosaics reproduce exactly the original nineteenth-century designs.
