Field treasurer of Prince Eugene of Savoy-Carignano-Soissons

Fondazione Museo Miniscalchi-Erizzo

Fondazione Museo Miniscalchi-Erizzo
Verona, Italy

In the centre of the Mullioned Windows’s Room there is a field chest in forged, perforated and engraved iron, donated in memory of Emmy Wasserer Ferrarini and Sergio Ferrarini.
The chest, kept by the Wasserer family of Innsbruck, has always been considered an heirloom of Prince Eugene of Savoy-Carignano-Soissons, a tradition supported by the typological and chronological characteristics and by the presence of two Savoy coats of arms in the metal plate that internally covers the gears of the lock.
The internal metal plate is perforated to create a continuous motif of vegetable racemes, in the center of which there are two putti holding a prince's crown.
