Default Petition calls for contextualization of Mussolini painting at Italian church in Montreal

Petition calls for contextualization of Mussolini painting at Italian church in Montreal


Oct 1, 2020

MONTREAL -- After the John A. MacDonald statue was toppled at Montreal's Place du Canada, some historians feel it is time to address the fresco looming over the faithful in the city's Little Italy.

Beneath God on the ceiling of Our Lady of La Difesa church is Italian fascist Benito Mussolini mounted on a horse.

"I can understand people that want to erase that, but you lose the possibility to inform, to educate people more about this dark part of our history," said Luca Sollai, a professor of history at Universite de Montreal.
