The statue represents a partisan.
It was made by Mario Salazzari (1904-1993), sculptor, musician, poet and partisan from Verona. The statue was erected in 1946 to commemorate the first anniversary of Liberation on 25th April. Some critics have compared Salazzari’s statue with Michelangelo’s David, that was also an important iconographic model during the Fascism. The statue is well preserved and it is well valued thanks to its favourable location.
