Description

Celebrating 50 Years of Italian Unification

Monumental wall "map" of the history of Italy, shown as a tree growing from the various regions and islands of the nation.

Exceptionally detailed time line / map describing the history of Italy up to 1911, the year of publication. 

The map is dedicated to the King of Italy and to the Italian Municipalities by Prof. Francesco Ravetti. Printed and edited in Turin from the Doyen lithograph by L. Simondetti for the fiftieth anniversary of the unification of Italy.

The map, which develops graphically like a tree starting from the roots, represents a chronological table highlighting the most significant events in the history of Italy from the ancient peoples up to 1911.  

The commemorative tapestry was distributed to schools.
