25 All the names end in vowels?
79 First Born Sons has been suggested
25 All got Italian airports named after them.
25 took a bit of thinking about but I think that I might have got it . . .

Verdi wrote a song called 'Guarda che bianca luna: notturno' ('Look at that white moon: night'.

Fellini's last movie was 'The Voice of the Moon'

Caravaggio painted 'The Creation of the Sun and Moon'

Galileo studied the Moon but, possibly more importantly, discovered the four largest moons of Jupiter.

. . . and Marco Polo? It's the name of a crater on the Moon.

So can you guess what four-letter word I'm thinking of as a possible answer here?

;-)
Annoyingly, I think that Captain2's answer is better than mine!

(Even more annoyingly though, I frequently find myself looking up flights to and from those very airports when answering questions in 'Travel' - so I really should have known the answer!!!)
PS: Are there any bonus marks for sheer inventiveness in answering?

If so, I wanna claim one!

Most of pictures have already been answered on previous threads
