Former Italian PM Mario Monti is all the talk with this photograph

Italy is talking about former Prime Minister Mario Monti after he was photographed over the weekend sitting on stairs while he waited in line at a hospital.

Former Prime Minister Mario Monti, who served from November 16, 2011 to April 28, 2013, was the most talked about man in Italy after a photograph of him sitting on stairs waiting in line at a hospital surfaced on social media.

An economy professor at Milan's Bocconi University interpreted this as exemplary conduct.
