Cadets, 2014<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n

Paolo Verzone<\/a><\/h5>\n<\/div><\/section>\n

Throughout Europe, the military academies are the guarantors of military tradition and of the ancient values attached to the army.<\/p>\n

Even though they are deeply tied to the idea of nation and homeland in the countries they belong to, the military academies represent a bridge between the European people.<\/p>\n

For more than 200 years, Europe has had an important tradition of military schooling, where the officers-to-be are trained. These academies have a prestigious history and claim to be the guarantors for soldierly honor and strictness. To each of these academies corresponds a strong identity marked by history; in a united Europe, they are now seldom opposed, and more frequently opening to one another.<\/p>\n

Long-interested in the quest for a European identity, particularly in his work \u201cSeeuropeans\u201d, Paolo Verzone takes portraits of the cadets from the most important academies on the continent.<\/p>\n

As a matter of fact, the officer cadets are a symbol of the link that exists between their school\u2019s tradition and history, and the military Europe\u2019s future they carry.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>
