Monument to Giuseppe Garibaldi, Bronze equestrian monument on Janiculum Hill, Rome, Italy
The bronze statue depicts Giuseppe Garibaldi mounted on horseback, standing atop a marble pedestal decorated with allegorical figures representing Europe and America.
The monument, inaugurated on September 20, 1895, commemorates the 25th anniversary of Rome's unification with the Kingdom of Italy.
Four bronze bas-reliefs on the pedestal illustrate significant events including the Landing at Marsala and the Defense of Rome in 1849.
Visitors can reach the monument by climbing the Janiculum Hill, which offers extensive views of Rome's historical center.
The statue's orientation changed after the 1929 Lateran Treaty, with the horse now facing Rome instead of the Vatican.
