Winners will share a prize pool of over € 10,000, as well as a series of prizes made available by the partners of the contest and the publication of photos on prestigious photo portals.

Among the prizes there is also a prestigious exhibition (held between July and August) at Porec Museum (Croatia) for 3 ranked portfolios: Urban Vision by Giovanni Paolini, La Boda by Mariagrazia Baruffi, Railway Station by Roberto Di Patrizi.

The four winners of the “Trieste’s Museums” Award will be announced very soon. The related exhibition at the “Sartorio” Museum in Trieste, Italy, will be held from 22 October to 10 November as part of the Trieste Photo Days festival.

Finally, a selection of single images and projects will compose the fifth volume Urban unveils the City and its secrets, currently in production. The book will be presented at the Trieste Photo Days before the award ceremony.
