AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Document dimensions 90x48 cm
This is an official decree (proclamation or edict) printed on antique paper, supplemented by extensive annotations and handwritten provisions in the lower part. Issuing authority: The document is issued in the name of Carlo Borromeo Arese (stated in the text as Carlo Borromeo Aresi), a prominent noble and official under the aegis of the I.R. Imperial Commission of the State of Milan (Habsburg Empire). Date and Place: The printed text bears the date July 1, 1717, with the designation of the Villa of Cesano Maderno (monumental residence of the Borromeo Arese family).
Structure and Content of the Text
Top section (Printed text): It presents two columns in old typographic characters. The text defines extraordinary fiscal and administrative provisions in response to the hardships of the recent war (the “late War”). It orders vassals, feudal lords, consuls and regents to present within fifteen days the due receipts and censuses of the household units ("fuocolari") at the Imperial Secretariat in Milan. Bottom section (Manuscript section): An elegant eighteenth-century script applies the general decree to a specific case. It orders the "Marchesa Donna Anna d'Adda" and the "Count Gio. Battista Maggiolini" (imperial feudal lords of Mombercelli) to pay the provisional sum of 460 gold scudi and 12 Milanese lire. Signature: On the right, beneath the name of Carlo Borromeo, appears the official ordering formula and the signature of the imperial secretary: "Ad mandatum Suæ Excellentiæ proprium. Jo. Baptista Piccaluga Imperialis Secretarius".
