it is the icon of Roma. However, anything "ancient roman" was pereceived as the ideal symbol for a new italian empire, so this kind of art was used ex-novo and abused during the fascist era, all over the country and even abroad. As a matter of fact even the nazi Germany started to copy this style at some point.
Ah, besides now i think to notice that it's a mosaic on the floor under Galleria Vittorio Emanuele (Gallery dedicated to the first king of Italy). There you can see the emblems of the cities that was capital of the kingdom of Italy: Milan (in a forced such of historic interpretation), Taurin, Florence and finally Rome. Yes, this other must to be the right explanation for the roman symbol in that place. Anyway the fascism didn't exist then.

It's just because Milan was an important roman city, Mediolanum. And also the capital of the western Roman empire after Rome.
