A musician, a poet, an actor, an acrobat… the art of storytelling includes different talents, narrative techniques embodied in a pen that recalls a well-known historical character of French courts: the jester. This figure, universally known by his loud colours in clothing and the bizarre shapes of his ornaments, is not to be reduced to a simple clown, though, yet to be considered a professional storyteller and entertainer. To do him justice over time were distinguished Italian writers like Cielo D’Alcamo and famous composers like Giuseppe Verdi, who celebrated the jester in his Rigoletto. To the Rigoletto’s jester was eventually inspired Rigoletto by Montegrappa, a pen available in the version of fountain pen and roller pen, both in limited editions, as a homage to the storyteller’s talent. A must for all those who put art and creativity into their writing: you can find this precious pen in Giardino Italiano’s on-line store.
