The leitmotif of the images we have chosen to tell the main events of the week through the eyes of our photographers
is 'the first time'.
It was certainly the first time for the
Maneskin
victory
in Sanremo, the first time a
Pope
's visit to
Iraq
.
Francis also visited the ruins of the site-attolic church of Hosh al-Bieaa destroyed by Isis.
The first time, again, of the anti-covid vaccination for the President of the Republic Sergio
Mattarella
at Spallanzani.
And again for the first time
Ferrari
has unveiled the SF21, the car that will race in the 20-21 Formula1 season: red and amaranth but with a green twist.
The first time again for the sale of a work of
crypto art
'The first 5000 Days', auctioned by Christie's for over 60 million dollars.
This is a monumental all-digital collage by Beeple that has exceeded all expectations.
Finally, again, the first time of a champion,
Valentina Vezzali
, nominated by the CDM Undersecretary for Sport.
47 years old, the former Azzurri fencer is the most medal-winning woman in all of Italian sport.
'My commitment will be grassroots sport and the Olympics' he announces.
And finally, for 8 March this year we have chosen not a news image but a photo that tells the commitment of women on the front line in this pandemic year, who have also fought in the wards against covid.
Here we have chosen a symbolic photo, that of
the nurse
who faints after an exhausting shift photo that is part of the MADRE museum of contemporary art
