On the 23rd May 2018, the second Regimental Portrait Sittings of my Soldati della Repubblica series took place with the 1º Reggimento "Granatieri di Sardegna" at the historic Forte di Pietralata in Rome. The 1st Grenadiers Regiment was founded as Regiment of the Guards (Reggimento delle Guardie) on 18 April 1659 by the Duke of Savoy Charles Emmanuel II as his personal bodyguard regiment during military campaigns.

After the Duchy had been elevated to kingdom in 1720 the regiment fought in the War of the Polish Succession and War of the Austrian Succession, during which the regiment performed exceptionally brave during the Battle of Assietta.
