KINGDOM OF ITALY - MINISTRY OF THE ROYAL HOUSEHOLD - Lot 279
KINGDOM OF ITALY - MINISTRY OF THE ROYAL HOUSEHOLD Signed official letter, Racconigi, October 2, 1908. A one-page folio letter on letterhead of the Ministero della Real Casa - Divisione Prima, dated Racconigi, October 2, 1908, signed by the Minister of the Royal Household of Italy. An interesting official letter addressed to Dr. G. Ciapetti, informing him that His Majesty the King of Italy had received the copy of the book by engineer E. Barbet, entitled *Dai residui vinicoli e l’utilizzazione industriale delle uve*, which had been presented to him. The minister notes that this gift was very favorably received by the sovereign and that he has been tasked with officially conveying the Court’s thanks. Drafted at the Royal Castle of Racconigi, the summer residence of the House of Savoy, this letter provides an interesting account of the relations between the Italian Court and European scientific and technical circles in the early 20th century, particularly regarding issues of viticulture and the industrial utilization of wine by-products.
