War Memorial in World War I - Trastevere
(Inglese) War memorial, in the form of a plaque, devoted to the soldiers coming from the borough of Trastevere That Fallen During First World War. The plaque is Placed on the outer wall of Caserma La Marmora (La Marmora barracks) , in San Francesco d'Assisi square. It's next to a plaque devoted to the Bersaglieri (The high-mobility infantry, one of the italian most glorious corps) fallen in the Battle of Sciara-Sciat, during Italo-Turkish War.
The war memorial was posed 24 July 1921 and is an esample of how the style of these monuments evolved in Italy during the Twenties. More martial than a monument like War Memorial WWI of San Giovanni is still far way the strong symbolism used in the following years, after the march on Rome, when National Fascist Party comed to power.
In the plaque center the engraved letters of the inscription, filled in red, a colour typical for "military" plaques in that years.
On both sides a bayonet (recognizable by the asymmetrical dagger guard), on a palm leaf, symbol for the martyrs in christian iconography and symbol of Victory and (consequent) Peace in Ancient Rome and heraldry.
The inscription is crowned with an high-relief that represent a bay leaves garland upright between two italian helmets (Model 16). Under the helmets is hanged a straight ribbon, probably mourning bands.
Above the plaque is carved a flame, a perpetual flame.
Here a translation of the plaque inscription:
