Ultimo Domicilio 6, Via Lorenzo de Raymondi, Photograph

Part of this XVI-century palazzo in Italy has remained untouched for centuries. It belongs to the de Raymondis – a family that stems from military aristocracy and grew alongside the Italian nation. In 1836 the king of Sardinia Carlo Alberto was hosted here by his friend and mythical war hero, Lorenzo de Raymondi: l’uomo dal cranio d’argento-the man with the silver skull who lost part of his cranium in a battle and had it replaced with a silver sheet. The house has absorbed layers of generations. The frame is included.
