September 7, 1860: Naples Surrenders to Garibaldi and the Thousand This historic photograph captures the moment of surrender in Naples, Italy, as the city's citizens relinquished control to Giuseppe Garibaldi and his volunteer army, known as the Thousand. The Italian unification movement, which aimed to create a single Italian state from various regional territories, had reached a pivotal point. Garibaldi, a legendary figure in Italian history, had led his troops from Sicily to the mainland, determined to bring the southern kingdom of Naples into the fold. The Neapolitans, weary from years of political instability and economic hardship, had grown disillusioned with their monarchy. When Garibaldi's forces arrived, they were met with little resistance. In this image, Garibaldi, dressed in his iconic red shirt, stands at the head of the steps leading to the Royal Palace, surrounded by his soldiers. The Neapolitan citizens, represented by the crowd gathered below, have gathered to witness the momentous occasion. With the surrender of Naples, the Italian unification process gained momentum, leading to the eventual establishment of a unified Italian state in 1861. This photograph is a testament to the power of the people, their determination to create a better future, and the role of charismatic leaders like Garibaldi in shaping history. The scene is a poignant reminder of the historical significance of Naples and its people, as they played a crucial role in the unification of Italy. This image, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the rich history and the events that shaped the Italian nation as we know it today.
