On Saturday, January 31 at 04:00 pm at the council hall conference "Historical curiosities and gossip about the Savoy family".
We are accustomed to studying the House of Savoy through the great historical treatises, the dates of battles, or the geographical boundaries they helped draw.
But behind the solemnity of official portraits and the rigor of court ceremonies lies a much more vibrant and, in some ways, unexpected dimension.
In the talk "Historical Curiosities and Gossip about the House of Savoy," through the recounting of everyday anecdotes, personal passions, and little court behind-the-scenes details, our Ars Rubiana Member Luciana Bigatti Colet will lift the veil on royal pomp to discover the men and women who were part of it.
We will see how even sovereigns were subject to weaknesses, obsessions, and loves that make them, in our eyes, much closer and more real. We'll explore the details of a daily life marked by rigid protocols, but also by escapes from reality and secrets whispered in the corridors of the Quirinale and Superga.
Prepare yourselves for a journey through the history and gossip of the era, where academic rigor meets the pleasure of curious discovery.
