EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment in Italian history as the crowd outside the Quirinal Palace in Rome erupts in jubilant cheers on the day Italy declared war in 1915. The First World War saw Italy engage in conflict on four separate occasions, firstly against Austria-Hungary, then Turkey, Germany, and finally Bulgaria. In this image, the Queen of Italy and the Princess stand before the massive crowd, their expressions difficult to discern amidst the tumultuous scene. The people of Italy had long yearned for a unified national identity and a place on the world stage, and the declaration of war represented a significant step towards achieving both. The streets of Rome were filled with a sense of excitement and anticipation, as the Italian people came together to support their monarchy and their country. The Quirinal Palace, an iconic symbol of Italian royalty and power, looms large in the background, a testament to the grandeur and history of the Italian state. This powerful image transports us back to a time of great upheaval and change, as Italy entered the world war and embarked on a new chapter in its history.
