Vincenzo Scamozzi

Vincenzo Scamozzi (September 2, 1548 - August 7, 1616, born in Vicenza, Italy, was an an architect and a writer on architecture, active in Verona in the second half of the 16th century. He was perhaps the most important figure there between Andrea Palladio and Baldassare Longhena, his one pupil.

His father was the surveyor and building contractor Gian Domenico Scamozzi. He visited Rome, 1579-80, and then moved to Venice in 1581.
