About the Item

Portrait of Garibaldi by Lodovico Tuminello is an albumen print applied on grey cardboard. Exellent condition, print cm 16,5 x 11. Dry stamp by photographer on the cardboard. This very- well preserved albumen portrait come to us jealously preserved for a long time: the emulsion does not present any alteration and with very few abrasions on the cardboard. On the right edge there are almost invisible gluing folds The importance of this image lies not only in Garibaldi's portrait power, but also in the photographer's history. Lodovico Tuminello was one of the pioneers of photography in Rome, where he photographed portraits of famous characters and views of the city. Before opening the famous atelier in Via dei Condotti, he was exiled from Rome for taking part in the Roman Republic of 1849, one of the first revolutionary movements in Italy that occurred before the arrival of Giuseppe Garibaldi. Therefore in this image a comparison takes place between two revolutionaries, who differently offered their lives for the same cause. This famous portrait depicts Giuseppe Garibaldi at a mature age and from other sources we know that it was made in Rome in 1874, that is, a few years after the "breach of Porta Pia"

Vintage Photo-Portrait Hand Signed by Giuseppe Garibaldi - 1870s

Located in Roma, IT

Signed Portrait of Giuseppe Garibaldi is an albumen print realized by Lugi Montabone, Florence 1870 circa. The portrait is signed with a dedication handwritten by Garibaldi on the lower edge of the cardboard. Excellent conditions. Cardboard cm 11 x 16, print cm 10 x 14 This unique document of Italian history reproduces a famous photographic portrait of Giuseppe Garibaldi, taken by Luigi Brogi at the end of his life. In the portrait the famous hero wears a poncho and a beret, the face looks very tired but retains a fierce expression on the face. The pose of this photograph, exactly like the clothing, suggests that this photo is a tribute to another portrait made by Brogi but in 1866, in which Garibaldi poses in the height of his celebrity, dressed in the same South American tradition clothing. The incredibly characteristic element of this exceptional document concerns the autograph: the handwriting part is certainly written by Garibaldi's hand but with discontinuous and angular signs, an evident than tender sign of the senility of the "hero of the two worlds". Giuseppe Maria Garibaldi (4 July 1807 – 2 June 1882) was an Italian general, patriot, and republican. He contributed to the Italian unification...
