In this photograph, a cart-load of Swiss soldiers, resplendent in their iconic, fancy uniforms, gallop towards Rome in the year 1860. The tradition of Swiss mercenaries guarding the Vatican City dates back centuries, and these brave men are no exception. As they approach the Eternal City, they embody the rich history and grandeur of this unique and historical service. Switzerland, renowned for its neutrality and military prowess, has provided the Vatican with its guardians since the 16th century. The Swiss Guards, as they are known, have played a crucial role in protecting the Pope and the Apostolic Palace. This photograph captures a significant moment in their storied history, as a new cohort of soldiers sets out to enlist in the Pope's service.

The image transports us back in time, allowing us to witness this historical event unfold before our eyes. This photograph is a testament to the enduring tradition of the Swiss Guards and their unwavering commitment to the protection of the Vatican City. It is a reminder of the importance of history and the role it plays in shaping our world today.
