BIOGRAPHY
Natale Bonifacio da Sebenico, Dalmatian printmaker. Very little is known of his life. In the 1570s he is documented as traveling to Venice, where he published some maps. From there in 1575 - in conjunction with the opening of the Holy Year - he moved to Rome. He engraved the plates drawn by Giovanni Guerra for Dominico Fontana in 1586 illustrating the transportation of the Vatican obelisk. The plates are signed "Natalis Bonifacius Sibenicensis fec."
