EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a pivotal moment in European history as Parisian street posters announce Napoleon III's decision to go to war in Italy in 1859. The posters, adorned with the tricolor French flag, proclaim the emperor's intent to help Vittorio Emanuele II, the King of Sardinia, in his campaign to expel the Austrian forces from his territory. In the background, the iconic Arc de Triomphe stands tall, symbolizing the grandeur and power of the French Empire. The events leading up to this moment were significant. The Second Italian War of Independence, also known as the Franco-Austrian War, was a turning point in the Risorgimento, the movement for Italian unification. Napoleon, seeking to expand his own power and influence, saw an opportunity to align himself with the Italian nationalist cause and challenge the Austrian dominance in Italy. Vittorio Emanuele, a key figure in the Italian unification process, welcomed the French support. In exchange for their assistance, he promised the return of the provinces of Savoy and Nice to the House of Savoy, which had been under French control since the Congress of Vienna in 1815. The successful outcome of the war led to the signing of the Treaty of Zurich in November 1859, which granted Savoy and Nice to Vittorio Emanuele, marking a significant step towards Italian unification. This image, with its powerful message and historical significance, offers a glimpse into the complex web of alliances and ambitions that shaped Europe during the 19th century.
