    ROBERTO RICCI D'ANDONNO, Italy

An ongoing personal project that features portraits of refugees
who have arrived in Italy from countries plagued by war and
poverty and are awaiting asylum. While history honors famous
journeyers, these refugees embark on dangerous travels not for
glory, money or war but for freedom.I have photograph them as
historical figures, such as Colombo, Magellan, Stanley,
Livingstone, Percy, Napoleon, Gengis Khan and other famous
explorers, conquistadors and generals, inspired by classic
paintings and photographs.
