Against all wars! sent on May 11, 2023 (0:38) by Pinitti. 84 comments, 1859 views. [retina]

at 24mm, 1/40 f/4.0, ISO 1000, hand held.

L'Ossario di San Martino custodisce nell'abside 1274 teschi e nella cripta le ossa di 2.619 soldati dell'Armata Sarda e del VIII Corpo d'armata dell'Imperial regio esercito austriaco che si affrontarono nei cruenti scontri dell'omonima battaglia combattuta, anche nella vicino Solferino, il 24 giugno 1859, in occasione della II^ Guerra d'Indipendenza. I bollettini riportano, complessivamente, più di 7.600 morti e circa 19.500 feriti, ma è lecito ritenere che siano stati assai di più. Secondo studi logico-statistici effettuati dalla Croce Rossa, una stima attendibile delle perdite subite dai contendenti vedrebbe raddoppiato il numero ufficiale dei caduti e dei feriti. La scena che si presenta ai primi soccorritori è agghiacciante. Questa la testimonianza di Pier Carlo Boggio, deputato, professore e giornalista giunto sul luogo della battaglia da Brescia: «Qua e là erano feriti addossati a qualche albero in attesa del carro che li trasportasse, morti giacenti bocconi al suolo, alberi scavezzati dalle palle, case crivellate e fumanti, prati e campi pesti e solcati in tutti i sensi, piante recise, viti strappate, pali spezzati, e tutto intorno il terreno coperto di fucili, di sciabole, di scakò (o shakò - copricapo militare, n.d.r.), di zaini, di cravatte. A misura procedevano oltre, più frequenti i cadaveri, più sensibili gli orrori della battaglia e, in breve avvicinandoci il percorso cammino alle alture, sulle quali sorge Solferino, lo spettacolo che ci si parò innanzi eccedette quanto la più sfrenata immaginazione potesse creare. La strada, i campi che la fiancheggiavano lateralmente coperti di morti, per modo che assai volte dovemmo arrestare i cavalli, e scendere a rimuovere i giacenti per non passare sul loro corpo: innumerevoli le armi abbandonate sul terreno, le baionette sozze di sangue ed attorcigliate; i fucili in gran parte spezzati al calcio: il che tutto dimostrava la vista delle immani ferite; e il deforme aspetto del più gran numero di cadaveri.» (Tratto da: La battaglia di Solferino e descrizione del campo dopo il combattimento, Roma, 1859).

This image, despite its chilling rawness, unfortunately serves no purpose.
Excellent in any case the idea of posting it, in support of an excellent and meticulous caption, at least to reiterate what is the incredible human stupidity.

Document of great value, photographically I really like it.
I read with interest the caption, the skulls arranged in this way with this wire mesh give a nice artistic flavor, but the thought goes that behind each one there was a person, a story, a family ...
What happens to us, we scramble for everything and then just a couple of generations and nobody knows anything about our name anymore ... There is to meditate.
maximum.

Creepy, but very explanatory ............ and then I really like the photo, the black and white is well executed and the central skull, closer than the others and brighter, seems to want to show off ..... narcissus?!?

excellent image to leave a meaningful message, you say well Pinitti, centuries pass, progress advances, but does not diminish the greed and desire for power of men, who end up clashing in useless wars leaving behind them only deaths and devastation, today more than ever we should be against wars, be bearers of peace!
