EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a chilling moment in history - soldiers, under the command of General Bava Beccaris, standing resolutely in front of the Cathedral during the riots that engulfed Milan from 6th to 9th May 1898. The image is hauntingly symbolic of the social unrest and turmoil that plagued Italy at the time. The riots were sparked by a combination of factors including poor Liberal domestic policies, a bad harvest, and increased food prices. In response to a peaceful demonstration, General Beccaris ordered his troops to fire cannons on the crowd, resulting in an appalling death toll of around 100 people. This brutal act shocked and outraged many Italians. Despite this tragic event, General Beccaris was later decorated by the king for his actions during these tumultuous times. The photograph serves as a stark reminder of both protest and repression within Italian society. The image itself showcases motion with blurred figures representing troops armed with rifles standing against the backdrop of Milan's majestic Cathedral or Duomo. The Italian flag proudly waves above them as they stand united in their combat unit or platoon. This historical photograph preserved by Museo di Storia della Fotografia Fratelli Alinari in Florence provides us with a glimpse into one chapter of European history marked by social upheaval and political agitation.
