(ANSA) - TRIESTE, 22 MAR - Ugo Borsatti, a photographer who documented the many social and historical aspects of Trieste's return to Italy, died at the age of 98. Dean of Trieste photographers, his most famous images include an American soldier kissing his Italian girlfriend on a train before the convoy departs in 1954, nine years after the end of World War II, when the US Army stationed in Trieste left and returned the city to Italy. On the same note, Piazza Unità d'Italia was packed to the rafters on October 26, 1954, to commemorate the precise return to Italy. Borsatti also took a flurry of terrible photos during the 1953 Trieste riots, which were harshly repressed by the Civil Police under the Allied Military Government (GMA), led by British general Thomas Willoughby Winterton. It was Borsatti's first significant service as a photojournalist, and it became a historical record, so much so that it became a book first and then a documentary, "Una traccia indelebile." (ANSA).
