Raffaello Schiaminossi (1572–1622) was an Italian engraver and painter of the late- Mannerist and early-Baroque period, active mainly in Tuscany.
He was born and died in Sansepolcro, and engraved works after Cornelis Cort, Federico Barocci,[1] and Ventura Salimbeni. The latter provided some of the designs for his voluminous collection of engravings titled Quindecim Mysteria Rosarii Beatæ Mariæ Virginis ("The Fifteen Mysteries of the Rosary").[2]
A painting by an anonymous Italian artist that sold at auction in 2016 was found to have a support consisting of a partially cut Schiaminossi copperplate, the frontispiece to his set of etchings Twelve Caesars from 1606.[3]
