If Maurizio Crozza had not gone on a well-deserved vacation, he would not have stopped disguising himself as the governor of Lombardy and, in one of his most successful imitations, would have made him shout “retro vade” in front of the Neapolitan manger that Fontana’s colleague, Vincenzo De Luca kindly wanted to donate to the Lombards. The Milan manger did not want it, even if it was a gift, and it was not Fontana who said no, but the councilor appointed by him for Tourism and also for Marketing and Fashion: the alpine ski teacher Lara Magoni, exponent of Fratelli from Italy. The great refusal took place without anything written, but between secretariats that limited themselves to transmitting shame.
It all started when Governor De Luca, in agreement with Tourism Councilor Felice Casucci, decided to offer for this Christmas “divided” and “restricted” by Covid a gift of value for all the other regions of the boot. Campania has prepared a tender co-financed with the state, as part of the Poc 2014-2020, and has started the operation “Trip to Italy of the Neapolitan Nativity”. Goethe’s quote will not escape. An operation that had to sanction unity and, if there had not been, peace between rulers, of whatever political color they were. Forty-eight hours ago, respecting the red zones, the first 9 handmade nativity scenes were sent “in the manner of the 18th century”, but only 8 were well received: Milan declined the invitation to exhibit what was made in Naples. It wasn’t a lease, it wasn’t paid, it was a gift. However, the city of the Duomo said no.
So much so that from Santa Lucia they tried again with Bergamo, the city most affected by the Covid, and this time a yes came with a wide smile from the mayor Giorgio Gori, who wrote a letter to Naples: “The gesture so significant that offers the opportunity to appreciate the beauty of a handicraft work rich in history that enhances the Neapolitan cultural heritage and ancestral traditions. A gesture that unites the territories and expresses a message of hope in a moment of great collective difficulty “.
The municipal offices of Zagarolo for Lazio, Florence, San Francesco di Paola for Calabria, the Castromediano Museum in Lecce, the Church of the Martyrs in Turin, the Region’s headquarters in Bologna in the Palazzo Malvezzi, the Salon arrived at this time. Nobleman of the Sceriman Palace in Venice, headquarters of the Veneto region and room of the Sicilian regional department of tourism.
“A message of hope – the board wrote in the resolution – but also a concrete gesture that inaugurates a paradigm of institutional dialogue based on the extraordinary beauty of our artistic and artisan heritage as a source of tourist attraction.” And the commissioner Casucci: “The trip of the Neapolitan manger to Italy inaugurates a new Grand Tour of things, even before the mobility of people. The artifacts made available in favor of the Autonomous Regions and Provinces will be permanent, so that they can be They are also exhibited for longer periods than the Christmas holidays, considering the forecast of proximity tourist flows ”.
Last night they left for Palermo, Lecce, Calabria and Lazio. Milan’s niet is still a mystery: “If it was a refusal from the Northern League, it seems strange to us – says Gabriele Casillo, president of the Botteghe dei presepi – because in 2017 it was Salvini who commissioned us a nativity scene for grandmother Peppina, the old woman victim of the earthquake who lost her home “. That was also a “given” manger: but it was offered by the shops of San Gregorio, not the then Minister of the Interior.
