The Garibaldi Monument on the Janiculum Hill in Rome, June 2012


The largest monument on the Janiculum is the Garibaldi Monument, an enormous equestrian statue of Giuseppe Garibaldi, honoring the Italian patriot's heroics on this hill in 1849. The statue, located at the center of a small piazza, was built in 1895 after a design by Emilio Gallori.
Four sculptures on the large pedestal depict both battle and allegorical scenes.
Giuseppe Garibaldi's wife Anita, who fought alongside him is also honored with an equestrian statue. Created in 1932 by Mario Rutelli, it depicts Anita Garibaldi with a pistol in her right hand holding a baby in her other hand. The two Garibaldi statues are a mere 200 meters apart, connected via the Viale Aldo Fabrizi.
