The painting celebrates the roles and functions of La Marmora in 1828 as part of the administrative and social tissue of Savoy. It depicts elements that still echoes the Napoleonic era together with those ones that are already pointing towards the Risorgimento.
The four brothers La Marmora, Carlo Emanuele, Alberto, Alessandro and Alfonso, had an important role in the history of the Italian army and their name is bound to four military corps still in existence today: the Cuirassiers to Charles Emmanuel, the Grenadiers of Sardinia to Albert, the Bersaglieri to Alessandro and the cavallery to Alfonso.
The painting since 2007 has been entrusted by the family Alberti La Marmara to the no-profit organization Centro Studi Generazioni e Luoghi and is kept in Biella at Palazzo La Marmora.
