Remarks:
In 1883, the Italian merchant Luigi Caprotti (1858-1889) had settled in Ṣanʿāʾ, where he opened a branch of the Italian trading house 'Mazzucchelli & Perera'. Together with his younger brother Giuseppe (1862–1919) who joined him in 1885, Luigi Caprotti was a host to many European travellers in Yemen, incl. Eduard Glaser (1855-1908).
