Bandiera, Attilio and Emilio

    0.01 sec.

Bandiera, Attilio (1810–1844) and Emilio (1819–1844)

Two brothers of a Venetian family who led an unsuccessful rising against the Bourbon rule over the kingdom of Naples in favour of Italian independence 1843–44.

When the rising failed, the brothers fled to Corfu. They landed in Calabria, with about 20 supporters, expecting that their arrival would be a signal for a revolt. However, they were betrayed by one of their companions and were shot, with six others.
