EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving from 1862, a sea of passionate Florentine artisans fill the streets, united in their opposition to the temporal power of the Pope. The demonstration, sparked by Cardinal Antonelli's recent declaration that Italy was not hostile to the Pope's temporal rule, saw each group of tradespeople proudly bearing the banner of their corporation, adorned with laurel leaves and emblazoned with defiant slogans such as "Viva Roma libera, capitale d'Italia!" (Long live free Rome, capital of Italy!) and "Abbasso il Papa Re!" (Down with the Pope-King!). As the procession made its way through the historic streets of Florence, the air was filled with the lively strains of national airs played by bands of music. The crowd, a diverse representation of Florentine society, was enthusiastic in their cheers for the Prefect and the National Guard, who stood ready to maintain order. Our Unknown artist skillfully captured the scene as the procession reached the Piazza della Signoria, a square renowned for its rich historical monuments. The determination and resolve of the demonstrators were palpable, as they marched in unison towards the heart of the city, their voices echoing through the streets in a powerful call for Italian unity and freedom from papal rule. This poignant moment in Florentine history serves as a reminder of the enduring spirit of the Italian people and their unwavering commitment to the pursuit of self-determination and sovereignty.
