GaribaldiMap project
“GaribaldiMap” intends to map all monuments to Giuseppe Garibaldi, as far as possible, throughout the world. Probably most statues of the “hero of the two worlds” can be found in squares, crossroads or main streets. This could be one of the reasons why they’re often unnoticed by passersby.
Every time I find a new Garibaldi’s statue, I take a Google Street View screenshot.
This tool is very useful to observe how the leader has been portrayed, but most important, to understand the relationship between the public work and its environment.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
GaribaldiMap project is meant to be shared by users.
You can add new addresses in The Map page!
If you haven’t a Google account, you can also write a new address in the blog or send it to garibaldimap@gmail.com, and I’ll put it in the map!
In Street Views page, you’ll see all the monuments from Google Street View “point of view” …and also digital postcards, that you can download, print and send!
