Specialist Notes

Beautiful set of 30 portraits: Vittorio Emanuele II, Princess Margherita, Prince Umberto of Savoy, young Amedeo di Savoia, Cavour, Mazzini, Bismarck, Garibaldi, Rattazzi, Emperor Alexander of Russia, Francesco II of Naples, the Queen Victory etc. A classic gallery of "illustrious men" according to the most rigorous humanistic tradition, declined in a modern version through the punctual black and white photographs of illustrious photographers, mostly from Milan. & Nbsp; & nbsp;
