He was a leader of the Risorgimento, a movement for the political unification of Italy that took place between 1750 and 1870. In 1848, Manin successfully led the Venetians to <strong>defeat the Austrians during their occupation of the city.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>However, the Austrians returned in 1849 with a vengeance and Manin was forced into exile in Paris, where he died in 1857. Austria left Venice in 1866 and the city was liberated.

The winged lion holding an open book represents the sovereignty of the state. The Doge kneeling before it is Doge Francesco Foscari, who reigned between 1423 and 1457.<\/p>\n<p>The Doge was not a king, but rather a president who ruled in the service of the Venetian people, the state and the Church. The Doge's kneeling shows his humility rather than his equality with God.<strong> as the French monarchy thought.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With allegorical figures, saints and cherubs, San Marco stands at the top of the gate. This gate is an affirmation of the importance and <strong>the connection between church and state.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><strong>A copy of the original<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Unfortunately, what you see today from this doorway <strong>is a copy of the original<\/strong>.

Not only is Venice home to this statue, one of my favorites, but Rome is also home to a monument dedicated to Emanuele II, known as Altare dell Patria, in Piazza Venezia.<\/p>\n<p>At the top of the Venetian monument stands the equestrian statue of Emmanuel II with his sword. In front of him and behind him, at the base of the statues, are winged lions with a sword. <strong>women in various positions.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One side is turbulent and troubled, while the other is proud and strong, as evidenced by the lion. The woman's clothes are regal, not armor as was the case on the opposite side. Note the closed book under the lions' grip. This means that the Venetian state is no more.<\/p>\n<p>There are many other statues in Venice.
