The history of the last name Quadrino

The surname Quadrino has its origins in Italy, specifically in the northern regions of the country. It is believed to have emerged during the 13th or 14th century. The name is derived from the Italian word "quadro," which means square or cube, suggesting that it may have been an occupational surname for someone who worked with or produced square or cube-shaped items.

One of the earliest recorded instances of the name Quadrino can be traced back to a document from the city of Verona in 1389, where a certain Giovanni Quadrino was mentioned as a landowner. Another early reference is found in the records of the Republic of Venice, where a merchant named Marco Quadrino was active in the 15th century.

Moving into the 18th century, Pietro Quadrino (1718-1789) was a distinguished mathematician and astronomer from Turin. He made significant contributions to the field of celestial mechanics and was a member of the prestigious Accademia delle Scienze di Torino.

In the 19th century, Giuseppe Quadrino (1826-1898) was an Italian painter known for his landscapes and genre scenes. He was born in the town of Casalmonferrato and studied at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera in Milan.
