Giambattista Albrizzi (1698-1777)
Giambattista Albrizzi, was an Italian publisher and journalist active in Venice during the mid-18th century. Albrizzi was the scion of a well-established Venetian publishing dynasty and followed in the footsteps of his father, Girolamo Albrizzi, who founded the family printing business and is known for publishing the work of the great Venetian cartographer Vincenzo Coronelli.His maps often featured elaborate decorative elements designed by Piazzeta. By integrating these decorative elements, Albrizzi hoped to revive the reputation of Venetian publishing, which, since the late 17th century, had fallen in regard since the days of Girolamo. His work helped lay the foundations for Italian school decorative cartography in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, including the work of Antonio Zatta, among others. In addition to his work as a map and book publisher, he issued a weekly journal, Novelle della Repubblica delle Lettere, an early newspaper that played an important role in Venetian business and intellectual life.
