Stumbling Stone Via in Publicolis 2

This small brass plaque (Stolperstein or stumbling stone) commemorates:

ANGELO ANTICOLI (born 1906, arrested on 19-4-1944, deported to Auschwitz, died on 24-9-1944)

"Stolpersteine" is an art project for Europe by Gunter Demnig to commemorate victims of National Socialism (Nazism).

Stolpersteine (stumbling stones) are small, 10x10cm brass plaques placed in the pavement in front of a residence of (mostly Jewish) victims who were murdered by the Nazis. Each plaque is engraved with the victim’s name, date of birth, and place (mostly a concentration camp) and date of death. By doing this, Gunter Demnig gives an individual memorial to each victim. One stone, one name, one person. He cites the Talmud: "A human being is forgotten only when his or her name is forgotten."
