If you have a keen eye, you will notice that a man is smiling at life in the photo to the right. He is sitting in the lower left corner, relaxed from the knee. Let your gaze wander to the right and now observe another guy, legs crossed coolly, sword nonchalant. These two are brothers and, at the time the photographer freezes his image, they are the spearheads of the Italian fencing team. They are as attractive as they are talented. Especially the one on the left. His name is Nedo Nadi. At 26, he has accomplished a feat that only Mark Spitz, the legendary American swimmer, will surpass at the 1972 Munich Olympics. He won five medals in a single edition of the Games, in this case those of Antwerp: the individual title in foil and saber as well as the team titles in foil, saber and epee alongside his younger brother, Aldo, 21 years old.
