Hi, I am trying to confirm if a young man (pictured in attachments) is a relative of mine. Can someone tell me if the uniform is recognisable to a particular military unit or region of Italy? And what era would this photo have been taken?

Re: Military uniform information
Ok I thought it may be a little tricky. What makes it harder is that the insignia on the hat is not clearly visible.
I can give you a few facts about the relative that I am hoping is featured in the photo:
He enlisted in military service in June of 1897 and was assigned to the 7th cavalry of Milano.
Now, the photos appear to be taken in the city of Modena, where there is a Military training college.
I am hoping it is my relative, and that his army unit, may have attended the training college in Modena as part of his service. Is this possible?
