History
Origins San Marco trascinato alla Sinagoga, 1499; Liechtenstein. On the bottom right, there is a plaque in which the name Bevilacqua is found. The first evidence of the involvement of the Bevilacqua family in the production of silks date back to 1499. It wasn't until 1875, however, that the textile production was incorporated into a company under Luigi Bevilacqua (1844–1898). ==References==
