Bronze monument of Emmanuel Philibert, in Piazza San Carlo.

The Equestrian monument of Emmanuel Philibert (Шаблон:Lang-it), commonly known as Шаблон:Lang (traditionally spelled Шаблон:Lang, Шаблон:IPA-pms; Шаблон:Langnf), rises in the center of Piazza San Carlo in central Turin, in the Piedmont region of Italy.

History

The monument was completed in 1838 in Paris by Carlo Marochetti, commissioned by King Charles Albert of Savoy to commemorate the military prowess of one of an ancestor from his dynasty, Emmanuel Philibert, Duke of Savoy. In the statue, the armored duke with a feathered helmet, astride a prancing horse, sheathes his sword, to signify his military feats. On the base, two bronze bas-reliefs depict the Battle of St. Quentin (1557) and the Treaty of Cateau-Cambrésis. An inscription celebrates the return of Emmanuel Philibert to Savoy.[1]
