The name Maserati, first and fore most belongs to the family, that produced the Maserati brothers. There were seven Maserati brothers (born to Rodolfo Maserati and Carolina Losi) Carlo b 1881; Bindo b 1883; Alfieri b 1885 (he died in infancy and his name was given to the next son) Alfieri b 1887; Mario b 1890; Ettore b 1894 and Ernesto b 1898 Each brother helped contribute in some way to the company that still bears their family name.


Carlo fell ill and died at age 29.
In March 1932 Alfieri died of kidney problems

Ernesto died in ..............?

I thought Carlo was never involved with the cars, he "only" painted, iirc!?

fines,

Carlo was involved with cars (he was engineer), but not with the cars, as he died in 1910. The painter was Mario, but at least he designed the trident emblem.
