Image description: Funeral procession in Rome of General Enrico Tellini and other members of the Italian Mission to Epirus. The men were murdered in an ambush on the Greek-Albanian border. Italian Prime Minister Benito Mussolini blamed the the Greek Government for the killings, precipitating the Corfu Incident. Mussolini, the Duke of Aosta, the Count of Turin, the Duke of Genoa and the Prince of Udine, together with a large crowd, accompanied the cortege to the Church of the Holy Apostles where the funeral was held. Roma ha reso grandiose onoranze alle salme dei componenti la Missione italiana in Epiro. I feretri, accolti alla stazione di Termini dal Duca d'Aosta, dal Conte di Torino, dal Duca di Genova, dal Principe di Udine, dal presidente del Consiglio e da una immensa folla, sono stati accompagnati in corteo alla chiesa dei Santi Apostoli dove venne celebrato un solenne ufficio funebre. Illustration for Illustrazione del Popolo, 7 October 1923.
