English: Solvay 1927 - Trento 2017: women and physics 90 years after the famous photo of the Solvay conference was taken, depicting 28 men scientists and one single woman, Marie Skłodowska Curie, the University of Trento and the Italian Physical Society present a different point of view: a new picture showing 28 women physicists and one man. Significant progress was made since Marie Skłodowska Curie’s times to improve the representation and the careers of women in physics. Yet, a lot more can be done starting by giving women more visibility. The iconic picture became a symbol - and not only for the scientific community - representing the talent, vision and innovation capacity of physics. But it also became the image of a time in which women scientists were very rare. Except for Marie Skłodowska Curie, the only woman present, all other scientists depicted in the photo taken at the famous Solvay Conference in 1927 were men. That picture turns 90 this year and today, on the occasion of the 103rd conference of the Italian Physical Society, it was at the centre of a special celebration. A new picture was taken, with 28 women physicists and one single man physicist. The purpose of the initiative was to give visibility to the women working in physics in Italy, and to raise awareness on the importance of female role models in scientific settings. The picture was taken in the court of Polo Scientifico e Tecnologico Fabio Ferrari by Giovanni Cavulli on the initiative of the University of Trento and the Italian Physical Society (SIF). It marks the end of a session on the scientific careers of women that was part of the conference.
