Biography

The father was Legationssekr. Alberto Maioli.[6]

Boglino grew up with her divorced mother. Boglino married, and settled in Palermo in 1927.[7][8]

According to a colleague from the years in Sicily Lia Pasqualina Noto (it) during the thirties it seems that Boglino had moved to Rome until her death.[9]

Boglino studied from 1923 to 1926 at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts under Sigurd Wandel[8][10]

One painting was purchased by Modern Art Gallery Sant'Anna (Palermo).

Her husband was Giovanni Boglino (born 1898 in Palermo).

The family home during World War II was a vineyard in the mountains south of Cefalu on the northern cost of Sicily.[11]
