Olivetti was founded in Ivrea, where my family is from, and where my uncle and cousin still live. Like many places, Ivrea celebrates Carnevale in the week before Lent starts. I'd like to go someday, but for now, I'll have to satisfy myself with these photographs from my uncle.
The boxes of oranges are for a "war" that goes on, in which you get pelted with oranges if you are not wearing a red hat. If anyone wants to comment on what that represents, I'd appreciate it.
