Galvagno ambassador to the Emperor Sigismund for the Marquis of Monferrato. Gian-Antonio in 1495 made the purchase of jurisdictional portions on Oviglio. Another Gian-Antonio in 1682 obtained the erection in county of the aforementioned fiefdom, beyond which the family was owned by those of Villanova, Terruggia, Giaiorle etc. and the right to add Gonzaga to his surname. The presence of the motto in the documented bibliography of the family confirms the ancestral nobility of the family. In fact, the origin of the motto dates back to around the 14th century and must be sought in those witty sayings that were written on the banners or flags of the knights, displayed on the windows of the inns where they stayed, during the tournaments, and during the tournaments themselves . The motto was a thought expressed in a few words, alluding to a clear or hidden feeling, to a quality, to a historical memory, as a stimulus to courage or honor. It was chosen by the head of the family, by the knight entering the race or given by the sovereign to his loyal man. Family motto: I saw. The coat of arms of the noble Pico Gonzaga family is emblazoned: Split; in the first quarter; in the first and fourth of red, to the golden lion, armed and tongue in black; in the second and third bands of gold and black; second in red, the golden ileonite leopard. Cimiero: A green dragon, crested, tongue and bearded red.
