- Cover photo description:
- Pictured is the mosaic of the Bull of Turin in the center of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, Italy`s oldest shopping mall. Housed within a four-story double arcade in the center of Milan, the Galleria is named after Victor Emmanuel II, the first king of the Kingdom of Italy. It was designed in 1861 and built by architect Giuseppe Mengoni between 1865 and 1867. The bull of Turin is represented with big genitals, and soon people thought it brought good luck. In fact, men began to spin around three times with a heel on the testicles of the bull. In addition, women began to touch the testicles thinking that this gesture could improve fertility. Over time this damaged this portion of the mosaic.
