An apparent WP:V fail. The lone source (in Italian) has, by my count, one reference to the "famiglia Pesenti". Pesenti (famiglia) exists in itwiki, but it is about 20th century businesspeople, not 16th century artists. This would be an interesting and notable article if it were verifiable, but I don't think it is. AleatoryPonderings ( talk) 16:10, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

- Weak keep -- The output of each member of the family seems to be small, and none seem to have articles of their own, so that this might serve as a joint biography, but for it to be a useful article redirects from the individual members ought to be created.

- Keep. Notability of Pietro and Vincenzo is confirmed by ULAN [1]. Other family members are more obscure but their existence & works are noted in Grasselli 1827, and a few other sources (e.g., Lamo, Alessandro, et al. 1774, Notizie istoriche de' pittori, scultori, ed architetti cremonesi: opera postuma; and Docci, Mario, Disegnare idee immagini n° 39/2009: Rivista semestrale del Dipartimento di Rappresentazione e Rilievo dell'Università degli studi di Roma La Sapienza) mention the family.

- Comment. As consensus seems to be to keep (especially given the excellent research by @ Ewulp), could closer move this to Pesenti family (painting) or something similar? The capitalization looks wrong to me. AleatoryPonderings ( talk) 17:49, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
