Festa della Chinea (local holidays, holidays, ... Events (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Annual Italian festival that took place on the 29th and 30th of June, honoring Sts. Peter and Paul and as a tribute to the Pope. Two days of events, including fireworks, the ritual presentation of a fine white horse (chinea), and some 7000 gold ducats were made as tribute to the incumbent pope by the Kingdom of Naples (later Kingdom of the two Sicilies). Until the hiatus of 1734-1737 (occasioned by political events) the macchine de' fuochi d'artificio were largely allegorical or mythological in nature; after the break they continued thus until 1745 after which they became predominantly architectural.

Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Een jaarlijks Italiaans festival dat plaatsvond op 29 en 30 juni, ter ere van de heiligen Petrus en Paulus en als eerbetoon aan de paus. Het Koninkrijk Napels (later het Koninkrijk der Beide SiciliĆ«n) droeg twee dagen van evenementen op aan de zittende paus, met onder andere vuurwerk en het ritueel presenteren van een mooi wit paard (chinea) en zo'n 7000 gouden dukaten. Voor de periode 1734-1737, toen het festival om politieke redenen niet plaatsvond, waren de zogeheten 'macchine de fuochi d'artificio' voor het merendeel allegorisch of mythologisch van aard. Na deze tussenperiode bleef dit kortstondig het geval, tot 1745, waarna ze hoofdzakelijk architectonisch waren.
