Commentary

Guiseppe Garibaldi (1807-1882) est un des pères du Risorgomento italien. En qualité de militaire, il participe de façon décisive à l’unification de l’Italie. Républicain convaincu, il s’allie pourtant à la Maison de Savoie pour reconquérir l’Italie méridionale. Il s’éteint en 1882 dans sa retraite de l’île de la Caprera au nord de la Sardaigne.
