I am happy to live, remember and share with you the historical passages are so important to the history of Italy!
I was very excited by the fervor of people in the street yesterday. Balloons
green, red and white flags waving from the windows and doors on the ribbons, squares ready to receive people, it took a moment to relive the extraordinary celebrations of Independence of my distant land ..

Giuseppe Mazzini, Vittorio Enmanuel II, Count Camillo Benso di Cavour, Giuseppe Garibaldi together are considered the fathers of the Fatherland. Garibaldi, as we all know, is also one of the most famous in the world! His military exploits in Europe and South America earned him the name of Hero of Two Worlds.

The great masters Ennio
Furesi Daniel Perret and wanted to celebrate the commemoration of creating an extraordinary board of alabaster, the secular "transparent stone and subtle charm." A unique piece that belongs to a collection of 50 chess boards that are part of an exhibition held last month in the medieval halls of the Palazzo dei Priori, Volterra, Pisa.
The extraordinary board sees the most important figures of the Risorgimento, Garibaldi on horseback, Mazzini and Cavour as bishops, the King Vittorio Emanuele II, the Queen Mary Adelaide - and the Tower could not be rappresentata dalla storica Lanterna di Genova, simbolo della città da dove partirono i Mille.
