Anthony Maria Ambrosini was a member of the Olivetano Order.

Round 1400 among the several Orders the Olivetan members were rising and called in Milan by the Noble-Man Balzarino Pusterla who in 1400 built for them the Monastery of St. Mary of Monte Uliveto in Baggio. The Monastery See of a scriptorium, very famous for its miniaturists, was well known for Obedience so that the Monks at Nerviano, in 1468, obtained a new house given by the NobleMan Ugolino Crivelli: it’s St. Mary Crowned, destroyed only at the end of the XVIII century.

In the XVI century for their vitality the Olivetani were called to enter some Abbeys in critical conditions: in St. Victor al Corpo (1507), ST. Calogero of Civate (1556), St. Peter of Viboldone (1571).
