Monument to the martyrs of the Fosse Ardeatine
In 1947, following a two-stage competition, the two groups known as “Risorgere” (Nello Aprile, Cino Calcaprina, Aldo Cardelli, Mario Fiorentino with Francesco Coccia) and “U.G.A.” (Giuseppe Perugini with Uga de Plaisant and Mirko Basaldella), were declared winners ex aequo and their collaboration was to give rise to a project of unprecedented iconographical and iconological clarity.
