EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the Mary Evans Prints Online archive, a group of Sardinian volunteers bid farewell to their loved ones in Genova, Italy, as they embark on a journey to fight in the Crimean War. Dated to 1855, this historical image captures a pivotal moment in the struggle for national recognition for Sardinia-Piedmont, a region in northwest Italy that was then divided into several smaller states. The Crimean War (1853-1856) was a significant turning point in European history, pitting the Russian Empire against an alliance of the Ottoman Empire, France, the United Kingdom, and Sardinia-Piedmont. The Sardinian volunteers' decision to join the conflict was driven by their desire to ensure their country's presence at the negotiating table and secure international recognition. The volunteers' departure from Genova is depicted in this photograph with a sense of determination and resolve. The men, dressed in their military uniforms, stand tall and proud, their faces set with a mixture of excitement and apprehension. Their families and friends, many of whom are weeping, cling to them, their expressions a poignant reminder of the human cost of war. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into a pivotal moment in European history, when the aspirations of a small nation were at stake. The Sardinian volunteers' bravery and sacrifice ultimately paid off, as the Treaty of Paris (1856) recognized Sardinia-Piedmont as an independent kingdom, marking a significant step towards Italian unification. This powerful image is a testament to the enduring human spirit and the lengths to which people will go to secure their nation's future. It is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by ordinary people in the pursuit of national recognition and unity.
