Vittoriano
Many, indeed a huge number, consider the entire complex of the Vittoriano as the Altar of the Fatherland. Alone, this habit underlines its importance. Conceived as an integral part of Giuseppe Sacconi's project, the Altar experienced a key period between the second and third decade of the twentieth century: it was then that it received the sculpture frieze by Angelo Zanelli, the winner of a hard-fought and exciting competition.
