"Piedmont: A Tapestry of History and Beauty" Step into the captivating world of Piedmont, a region in Italy that weaves together a rich tapestry of history, culture, and breathtaking landscapes. From the solemn commemoration of the Anniversary of the Death of King Umberto in Turin to the vibrant outdoor service on its iconic stairs, every corner tells a story. Immerse yourself in intrigue as you witness the gripping trial for the killing of Bonmartini in Turin. The intense interrogation of murderer Tullio Murri unfolds before your eyes through vivid color lithographs, capturing both fear and fascination. But Piedmont's allure extends beyond courtroom dramas. Experience heart-stopping moments like never before with an exhilarating glimpse into the Turin disaster—a car carrying ladies and gentlemen hurtling from Piazza Statuto—frozen forever in time by striking color lithography. Delve deeper into history with an engraving depicting the Treaty of Turin signed on 24th March 1860—an event that shaped not only Piedmont but also Italy itself. Transport yourself back to another era as you explore a painting showcasing a fierce Battle in Authion massif during 1800—a testament to bravery etched onto canvas. Venturing outside bustling cities, discover hidden gems like Chivasso—the Cavour Canal water intake immortalized through meticulous engravings—and Via Torino's charm captured beautifully through another engraving from 1899. Marvel at Chivasso's cathedral facade adorned with an elegant bell tower—a sight frozen forever by skilled hands on paper. Journey further to Cuneo where via Nizza beckons with its timeless appeal depicted lovingly through yet another enchanting engraving from 1893. And don't miss out on Valencia's panoramic view brought to life by delicate strokes engraved onto paper in 1901—inviting you to wander its streets even if just within your imagination.
