The following colour postcards, published by Stewart & Woolf, London, E.C., Series No. 559, c1909, feature the same model as in the above "In an Orange Grove" watercolour painting and in several other of Giovanni's works over the years. Until proved otherwise, I suspect that this is his wife Amy Barbaro. A Gipsie girl.
