Condition: molto buono. Rara impressione su seta verde (mm 490x360, bordi smerlati in tondo) di anonimo sonetto dedicato al "Prince de Piemont", composto in occasione della festa di San Cristoforo, celebrata nella Chiesa di San Carlo a Torino. Nella parte superiore grande vignetta (mm 125x111) raffigurante San Cristoforo con il…bambino sulle spalle, sotto il titolo a stampa e grande fregio, in fine i dati tipografici. Vittorio Amedeo III di Savoia (1726?1796), divenne re di Sardegna nel 1773. La festa di S. Christophle venne celebrata dai facchini Savoiardi nella chiesa di San Carlo Borromeo, che fu poi affiancata da quella dedicata a Santa Cristina. Carlo Emanuele I la fece edificare in onore del cardinale Carlo Borromeo, in occasione del suo pellegrinaggio per pregare davanti alla Sindone. La struttura sorse accanto al convento degli Agostiniani Scalzi, di cui oggi non abbiamo più traccia. Fin dal Seicento, gli immigranti stagionali che giungevano a Parigi dalla Savoia svolgevano principalmente lavori di facchinaggio e da spazzacamino, al punto che i facchini venivano chiamati "Savoiards. Introvabile curiosità storica, non reperita neppure in esemplari cartacei, in perfetto stato. //Rare print on green silk (490x360 mm, round scalloped edges) of this anonymous sonnet dedicated to the ?Prince de Piemont,? composed on the occasion of the feast of St. Christopher, celebrated in the Church of San Carlo in Turin. In the upper part: a large vignette (mm 125x111) depicting St. Christopher with the child on his shoulders, below which are the title in print and a large headpiece. The sonnet is enirched with a large decorated initial. At the top is a large vignette (mm 125x111) depicting St. Christopher with the child on his shoulders, below which is the printed title and a large headpiece. The sonnet is enriched by a large decorated initial. Vittorio Amedeo III of Savoy (1726-1796) became king of Sardinia in 1773. The feast of St. Christophle was celebrated by the Savoy porters in the church of St. Charles Borromeo, which was later joined by one dedicated to St. Christine. Carlo Emanuele I had it built in honor of Cardinal Carlo Borromeo, on the occasion of his pilgrimage to pray before the Holy Shroud. The structure rose next to the convent of the Discalced Augustinians, of which there is no longer trace. Since the 17th century, seasonal immigrants arriving in Paris from the Savoie region did mainly portering and chimney sweeping work, to the point that porters were called Savoiards. An incredibly rare historical curiosity, not found even as a copy on paper, in perfect condition. Book.
