I appeal once again to your kindness and ideas :)
I was looking for relatives in an 1874 Milano address book/guide, the Maraviglia family. I found only two men:
45 - Maraviglia, E. - Pittori ad Olio (Oil painter) - Via Fieno 3
319 - Maraviglia, Giovanni - Sellai (Leatherworker) - Camegrate
I know for a fact that the husband of a Maraviglia woman was a painter as well, so I think this "E." could be her brother or cousin and a possible ancestor of mine. In any case, I'd love to know if he did actually paint something that survived time, and that can be found online ;)
But I have no clue how to look for this, because "Maraviglia" also means "wonder", and art sites tend to use this word a lot! I thought of making a list of popular 1830s (when he might have been born) italian names that start with the letter e, and I emails two art museums in Milano (no replies yet).
Any ideas?
