Giuseppe Civelli (Barasso 1816 - Firenze 1882)
|
Giuseppe Civelli (June 2, 1816 - March 7, 1882) was an Italian publisher, printer, geographer and engineer active in Milan in the mid-19th century. Civelli was born in Lombardy, apparently of modest origins. He specialized in map drawing and founded a printing house in Milan in 1840. Ten years later, after achieving considerable success with ambitious cartographic publications, he was able to open other print shops in Ancona and Turin. When the capital of Italy moved to Florence in 1865, he established a large printing house there to capitalize on government contracts. This process was later replicated in Rome. He died in Florence, but his successors continued to publish under his trademark, Stabilimento Tipografico già C. Civelli, until the 20th century.
