EDITORS COMMENTS
This tempera painting by the Italian artist Carlo Bossoli captures a pivotal moment in Italian history: the presentation of the act of annexation of Emilia to King Victor Emmanuel II on March 18, 1860. The Cavaliere Luigi Carlo Farini, a key figure in the Italian Unification movement known as the Risorgimento, is depicted in the foreground, proudly holding the document aloft. King Victor Emmanuel II, dressed in royal regalia, sits on his throne, surrounded by advisors and dignitaries. The scene takes place inside an ornate room, with a large lamp casting a warm glow over the group. The painting, created in the late 19th century, captures the resurgence of Italian national pride and the historic moment when the process of Italian unification gained momentum. The use of tempera, a traditional painting technique, adds to the historical authenticity of the work. This painting is a testament to the important role that individuals played in shaping the course of Italian history during the Risorgimento period.
