STAGLIENO Cimitero Monumentale di Genova (Italia) - Monumental Cemetery of STAGLIENO of Genoa (Italy)

            La tomba di Caterina Campodonico, più universalmente conosciuta come quella della "Signora delle noccioline" (o anche della "Paisana" o della "Popolana") è commissionata direttamente da lei stessa allo stata dallo scultore Lorenzo Orengo (Genova 1838 -1909) che la scolpì nel 1881. E' famosa anche l'epigrafe scritta dal poeta Giambattista Vigo in dialetto genovese:

A sôn de vende ræste e canestrelli
All'Æguasanta, a-o Garbq, a san çeprian
Con vento e sô, con ægua zù a tinelli,
A-a mâe vecciaia pe asseguaghe ûn pan;
Fra i pochi södi, m'ammuggiava quelli
Pe tramandame a-o tempo ciù lontan
Mentre son viva, e son vea portoliann-a:
Cattainin Campodonico (a Paisann-a)
MDCCCLXXXI
Da questa mâe memoia, se ve piaxe,
Voiatri que passàe preghaême paxe.

A forza di vendere collane di noccioline e dolci
all'Acquasanta, al Garbo e a San Cipriano,
con il vento e con il sole, con l'acqua che vien giù a catinelle,
per assicurare il pane alla mia vecchiaia;
fra i pochi soldi, mi ammucchiavo quelli
per tramandarmi al tempo più lontano
mentre son viva, da autentica abitante di Portoria 1:
Caterina Campodonico (la Paesana)
1881
Da questa mia memoria, se vi piace,
voialtri che passate, auguratemi pace.

The tomb of Catherine Campodonico, more generally known as the "Lady of the nuts necklaces" (or even the "Paisan") was commissioned directly by herself to the sculptor Lorenzo Orengo (Genoa 1838 -1909 ) which made the statue in 1881. It is also famous the inscription written by the poet Giambattista Vigo in Genoese dialect :
By selling necklaces of nuts and sweets
in the streets of Acquasanta, Garbo and Saint Cipriano,
with the wind and the sun, with water coming down in buckets,
to ensure the bread in my old age;
among the few money I've piled up those
to pass the time as far
while I am alive, an authentic inhabitant of Portoria
Caterina Campodonico (The Paisan)
1881
From my memory, if you like,
you people that pass by, wish me peace.
