Ugo Borsatti’s works, Trieste’s iconic photographer who is celebrating his 96th birthday this Wednesday 18 January, are on display at Palazzo Gopcevich with a celebratory guided tour at 5.30 pm.
The young girl kissing an American soldier at Trieste station is probably one of his best known shots and one that made history. The year was 1954 and the city was still under Allied occupation nine years after the end of World War II in what was known as the Free Territory of Trieste.
