Francesco Bartolozzi , 1727-1815, Italian engraver. In Florence he studied drawing and painting and formed a lifelong friendship with Cipriani, most of whose plates he later engraved.

He was responsible for the vogue in England of the stipple technique of engraving, which greatly improved methods of reproduction.
