Lodovico Girolamo Graf Caprara war der Neffe Ottavio Piccolominis. Nach dessen Tod im Jahr 1656 wurde Graf Caprara zum Inhaber des Kürassier-Regiments Alt-Piccolomini. Aus diesem Verband ging das Kürassier-Regiment K7 hervor (von 1745 - 1762 das k.k. Kürassier-Regiment von Schmertzing), das die Tradition der Caprara-Kürassiere fortsetzte.
Der vorliegende Pallasch war Teil der Ausstellung "Salzburger Kontingente im Dienste des Kaisers" im Salzburger Wehrgeschichtlichen Museum 2020.

Count Lodovico Girolamo Caprara was the nephew of Ottavio Piccolomini. After the latter’s death in 1656, Count Caprara became the owner of the Cuirassier Regiment Alt-Piccolomini, from which later originated the Cuirassier Regiment K7 (Imperial and Royal Cuirassier Regiment von Schmertzing from 1745 until 1762), which continued the tradition of the Caprara cuirassiers.
The pallash at hand was displayed in the exhibition "Salzburger Kontingente im Dienste des Kaisers" (tr. "Salzburg military units in the service of the Emperor") at the Salzburg Museum of Military History in 2020.
