Giovanni Francesco Camocio

Giovanni Francesco Camocio was born in the first half of the sixteenth century, possibly in Asolo (Treviso) where the presence of the Camosio family, of Piedmontese origin, to which Giovanni Battista belonged, a well-known Hellenist considered by some to be a relative, if not brother of the Camocio, is widely documented.

Camocio was a prolific engraver of maps and prints, based in Venice.
