Giuseppe Tiburzio Vergelli (Recanati, 1629 – 1700 circa)
Giuseppe Tiburzio Vergelli was born in Recanati on October 12, 1629 to the sculptor Tiburzio and Lucrezia Botani. Trained as an architect, in the years 1658-77 in Loreto he was in charge of the buildings of the Holy House, also designing some towers along the Romagna coast, perhaps those wanted by Clement X in 1673 to defend against Turkish incursions. In Rome, over the course of 22 years, he worked on perspective and architecture, overseeing the construction of some noble residences. Among other activities he gave to the presses Le due regole della prospettiva pratica del Vignola, con i commentarii del rever. p. maestro Egnatio Danti [...] epilogate da Giuseppe Tiburtio Vergelli [...] (Roma, per il Mascardi, 1682), in compendio, and Le fontane pubbliche delle piazze di Roma moderna disegnate da Gioseppe T. V. recanatese. Returning to his hometown, he was appointed public depositary of Recanati in August 1695. His date of death is unknown.
