EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "PDC-F-001396-0000" showcases the magnificent equestrian monument to Charles Albert in Piazza Carlo Alberto, nestled in the heart of Turin. The image is believed to have been captured between 1870 and 1890 by the talented photographer Giovanni Battista Maggi from Alinari. The focal point of this artwork is undoubtedly the impressive statue itself, sculpted by Carlo Marocchetti in 1861. Standing tall and proud, it depicts Charles Albert mounted on a majestic horse, symbolizing his power and authority as a ruler. The female figure accompanying him adds an element of allegory and abstract concept to the composition. Beyond its artistic significance, this photograph also offers a glimpse into history. It transports us back to a time when Turin was at the center of royal imperial life in Italy. The monument serves as a reminder of Charles Albert's role within Italian territories and his connection with Savoy's noble lineage. As we observe this striking image, our attention is drawn not only to the central figures but also to their surroundings. The military uniform worn by Charles Albert reflects his involvement with armed forces during that era. This detail intertwines fashion and clothing with military life, providing insight into both personal style choices and broader historical contexts. In essence, "PDC-F-001396-0000" encapsulates multiple layers of meaning – from its representation of famous individuals like Charles Albert to its depiction of animals (the horse) as terrestrial mammals – all while offering glimpses into Italy's rich history through artistry and photography techniques mastered by Giovanni Battista Maggi.
