The second and third generations of the Bianchi family lived in an age of political and social unrest, culminating in the passage of the Veneto territories from Napoleon to the Hapsburg, until 1866, when the region was included in the Kingdom of Italy. Celestino Bianchi (1819-1878) took part in the first industrial exhibitions and the oldest document concerning the activity of the Bianchi family shows his participation in the Belluno Provincial exhibition in 1871.
