Giuseppe Sacconi

2.27

Giuseppe Sacconi (Montalto delle Marche, July 5, 1854 - Pistoia, September 23, 1905) was a prominent Italian architect and politician. He is primarily known for being the designer and director of works of the Vittoriano (also known as the Altar of the Fatherland) in Rome, a position he held for twenty years until his death. After this prestigious commission, Sacconi became one of the protagonists of the artistic culture of post-unification Italy, a time marked by heated debates about the creation of a "national style." Additionally, he played a prominent role as a restorer of some famous monuments, thus contributing to the current appearance of these works.
