Oil on canvas, 76 x 55 cm

Sketch for the frescoes of the vault of the Sala della Maggioranza in the Palazzo delle Finanze in Rome. Work commemorating the rediscovered national unity, for which the artist won the competition announced by the new state. The choice of characters was not easy due to the political tensions of those years.
