As a shout of acclamation it comes directly from Italian, meaning "Well done!", or "Excellent!". This use was adopted by the English aristocracy who regularly travelled across Europe as a kind of "grand tour" in the 18th and 19th centuries; they brought back many Italian expressions as well as fashions, architectural ideas and pieces of art.

"Bravo" was a widely used shout of appreciation in Victorian and Edwardian England, particularly among the nobility and the officer class of the British Army.
