Description
The book takes us back in time to the origins of Trentino hunting activity. After decades of neglect and oblivion, the precious artefact known as the 'Uccelliera' or 'uccellanda' of the Buffa Barons, a fascinating little jewel of Trentino art and architecture and a living witness to the history and customs of the last few centuries, comes back to life;
In the text, the well-documented treatment of the recovery of the uccellanda is accompanied by interesting essays on the history of the Baroni Buffa family that owned the facility, the social and economic life of Valsugana at the time, hunting activity, laws, and techniques from the 17th to the 19th century through archive documents and unpublished family correspondence.
