Sculpture of Vittorio Emanuelle II during battle for Italian Reunification

On our trip to Milan for the 2019 SRN Conference we had the time to visit the Museum of the Risorgimento so I could do some research on the Italian perspective of Giuseppe Garibaldi, the topic of my second Mentoris novel. It really helped me see him from several sides – and artwork like this highlighted the place he holds in world civilization.

I love visiting historic places of all types be they natural or manmade. I found this sculpture in Parco di Monza, near the Villa Reale.

Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II in Milan at Night

The world’s first shopping mall.😀 An amazing place I visited on a number of occasions during this trip. Also home to an amazing Leonardo exhibit.

This is adjacent to the Piazza del Duomo and was filled with people and music each evening. A perfect place for passeggiata, and Italian evening stroll.
