Catalog of the exhibition held in Kansas City (November 17th 2014 - February 18th 2015) and Washington DC (March-May 2015) This photographic exhibition, based on images from the Museo del Risorgimento 's archive, highlights the ravages that war can wreak not only on human beings, but also on what should be the inviolate beauty of art. This exhibit represents a unique opportunity to recapture and gain more insight into a significant part of our history. The specific focus on preserving cultural heritage provides a first-hand cultural and historical perspective of the conflict, as well as of the broader Italian framework.
