EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a significant moment in Italian history - the laying of the foundation stone for the New Municipal Building at Cagliari. The image showcases the grandeur and importance of this event, with King Umberto I of Italy taking center stage as he performs the ceremonial act. Surrounded by a distinguished crowd, including the Archbishop of Cagliari, King Umberto I is depicted wearing regal attire that further emphasizes his authority and status. His presence exudes power and elegance as he carefully places the foundation stone, symbolizing progress and growth for Cagliari. The composition beautifully portrays both historical significance and architectural splendor. The newly constructed Municipal Building stands tall behind King Umberto I, showcasing its impressive design elements. This structure will soon become an emblematic landmark for Cagliari's civic pride. The engraving technique used in this lithograph adds depth to every detail captured within it. From intricate patterns on clothing to facial expressions filled with anticipation, each element comes alive through delicate lines etched onto paper. This print not only commemorates a pivotal moment but also serves as a testament to Italian craftsmanship during the 19th century. It invites viewers to step back in time and witness an important chapter in Italy's rich cultural heritage.
