MONUMENT OF VICTORY, FORLÌ
In 1932 Mussolini inaugurated the Monument to Victory in Forlì, sculpted by Bernardo Morescalchi.
The work was cast in the Fonderia Artistica Ferdinando Marinelli in Florence.
For the recent restoration, photographs from above were taken of the three winged Victories in which bullet holes from the war appear.
