Spadaccini, Ranieri
Ranieri Spadaccini (fl. c. 1760 - 1807) was an Italian engraver and surveyor active in Florence and elsewhere in Tuscany in the late 18th century. Generally working in collaboration with other surveyors and engineers, he is credited with producing manuscript surveys and schematics of Pisa (1760), the villages of Vellano and Massa e Cozzile northwest of Florence (1782 - 1783), the doors of the city walls of Pisa and Livorno (1784), and the Coteto Vineyard near Livorno (1788). As an engraver, he prepared plates for the works of Machiavelli and Dante's La Divina commedia. Spadaccini appears to have been for a time in the employ of the Veronese nobleman Ignazio Pellegrini (1715 - 1790), with whom he prepared a survey of Pisa and designed at least one church in the city.
