🇬🇧 The equestrian monument dedicated to Gius

🇬🇧 The equestrian monument dedicated to Giuseppe Garibaldi is located in Piazza Cairoli. The choice of place is not accidental. The Cairoli brothers were in fact fervent "Garibaldini". It was inaugurated on November 3, 1895 following a long journey that led the #artist and sculptor Ettore Ximenes to be chosen for the realization of the project

🇮🇹 Il monumento equestre dedicato a Giuseppe Garibaldi si trova in Piazza Cairoli. La scelta del luogo non è casuale. I fratelli Cairoli furono infatti ferventi Garibaldini. Venne inaugurato il 3 novembre del 1895 a seguito di un lungo percorso che portò l'artista e scultore Ettore Ximenes ad essere scelto per la realizzazione del progetto

🇬🇧This bas-relief depicting a she-wolf intent on breastfeeding her puppy is located in Corso Venezia at number 21. But why did the she-wolf, symbol of the city of Rome, find a home in Milan? This work reminds us that up until two centuries ago here there was one of the access gates to the city : the Porta Renza. It was decorated with precious bas-reliefs and before it was demolished, the owner of the building on the corner of Via Senato and Corso Venezia decided to save that artifact and place it on the facade of his building

🇮🇹 Questo bassorilievo che raffigura una lupa intenta ad allattare il suo cucciolo si trova in Corso Venezia al numero 21. Ma come mai la lupa, simbolo della città di Roma, ha trovato casa a Milano? Quest'opera ci ricorda che proprio in questa zona di Milano esisteva fino a due secoli fa una delle vie di accesso della città: la Porta Renza. Essa era decorata con preziosi bassorilievi e prima che fosse demolita il proprietario del palazzo all'angolo tra Via Senato e Corso Venezia decise di salvare quel manufatto e posizionarlo sulla facciata del suo immobile
