Baptism Salento Umberto di Savoia-Aosta

Festival Salento for the smallest of the Savoy. Umberto di Savoia-Aosta, son of Aimone and Princess Olga of Greece, born in Paris on March 7 (see here ) was baptized on 18 July in the church of Sant'Antonio Abate in Giuggianello in the province of Lecce . The choice of venue is a tribute to the title of Duke of Apulia dad, but is also due to the fact that very recently in Salento, the young couple has bought a holiday home. Attending the ceremony of course the grandparents of small Umberto, Amedeo Duke of Aosta and his wife Silvia, the principles Michele and Marina of Greece, and then Casimiro and Maria Cristina of Bourbon Sicily, Aimone's sisters, Bianca and Mafalda di Savoia-Aosta with husbands and children, his sister Olga, Alessandra di Grecia e i principi Alvaro e Antonella di Orléans y Borbon. La Messa è stata concelebrata da don Alessandro di Borbone Sicilia che ha amministrato il battesimo. Madrina la principessa Maria Gabriella di Savoia rappresentata da Bianca di Savoia-Aosta, padrino il conte Carlo Radicati di Primeglio. Difficile dire a chi assomigli il piccolo Umberto principe di Piemonte (titolo assegnato dal nonno Amedeo e subito contestato dal cugino Vittorio Emanuele) speriamo solo che prenda da mamma e papà tutti e due piuttosto fascinosi.



By popular demand here is the link to the photos of the principles and Antonella Alvaro of Orléans (to me this Borbon continues to seem strange, but I admit that even the site of the Savoy-Aosta, the two are identified as Orleans-Borbon). It is abstract, there is the baptism with a very pretty picture of King Juan Carlos, who holds the umbrella over the prince Alvaro with his arm in a child, there are other moments of their lives, including marriage. I can not enter it in this post for technical reasons, but see it is simple just click here and move the cursor or mouse, are one behind the other. Scroll through the photos you get to those in black and white of Infanta Eulalia, Alvaro great-grandmother, sister and daughter of King Alfonso XII of Isabella II. This branch of the Orleans, which originates from the last son of King Louis Philippe, has repeatedly intersected, by marriage with the English Bourbons. My grandmother was an English instead of Alvaro, the grandson of Queen Victoria and her mother an Italian aristocratic. For a post dedicated to them would serve me a story, but a real news, if you know what I mean.
