Photo exhibition “Dal Mare sul Mare” (From Sea to Sea) – Museo Piaggio

Until 27 August, the Piaggio Museum hosts the photographic exhibition “Dal Mare sul Mare” (From Sea to Sea), a tribute that the Piaggio Group intends to dedicate to the Italian Navy. The exhibition is made up of 24 photographs taken by Massimo Sestini, one of Italy’s leading photojournalists who has been telling the story of Italian customs, politics and society for more than forty years. Sestini’s shots transport the visitor to the heart of the daily activities of the women and men of the Navy.

The public will be able to ‘walk’ on the gigantic aerial photo of the submarine Giuliano Prini, caught in the moment in which it emerges from the waves. Even more enthralling is the visit to the immersive projection room where a series of videos produced by Sestini during his collaboration with the Navy are on show. Prominent among them is one dedicated to the iconic Amerigo Vespucci school ship.

Also on display is the Moto Guzzi V100 Mandello Aviazione Navale, a limited edition of 1913 numbered examples; a tribute to the year the institution was born. The motorbike celebrates the union that has united Moto Guzzi and the Navy’s Naval Aviation for over a century.
