The first is from Trentino, the other from South Tyrol. They can pass in the bordering countries, I guess.

Yess, I think Seppi looks more Germanic but I know people from Calabria who resemble him.

If I were to guess without knowing their ethnicities I would say UK/Benelux/North France for the first and Scandinavia/ North Germany for the second.

Switzerland, Austria, Germany i think. Both come boundaries areas, so it's normal some overlap.

Without knowing i'd say first one Germany, second one Germany and even Scandinavia. Doesn't look Italic at all. Very Germanic look especially the second one. The first one looks a bit off and slightly more italic. Marchisio is a fair Italian that has an Italic look imo. These look completely germanic.

You think that way because you are not used to northern italian phenotypes!They both have some ''germanic'' influence,but they do look italian overall...they pass in Germany IMO,but not in Scandinavia!

I would not call them "very Italian overall." There are lots of italian blonds that retain the Italian look but not these two. If they both have a "very italian" look then none of us here would say they would fit easily in Germany, France, low countries, Scandinavia and everyone is saying that they can pass in all of these countries.

France is not far off for some people with an Italian look, but Scandinavian and Italian its hard to look both simultaneously.

North of Italy. Stoppini fits in the Italian spectrum, Seppi less.
