A curious publication listing the names and ages of twelve Milanese women<br />
admitted to the traditional foot-washing on Maundy Thursday as part of<br />
the ceremonial of the Kingdom of Lombardy-Venetia. The publication<br />
proudly records that the combined ages of the twelve charity recipients add<br />
up to 1072.<br />
Not found in RLIN or OCLC, the Bibliothèque Nationale records similar publications<br />
for a few years between 1827 and 1846, but not this one.<br />
