Antonio was born in Vicenza but studied medicine in the University of Padua. His Venetian wife, Elisabetta Caminer, published biographical entries in a contemporary encyclopedia. Antonio set up a printing house in 1780 in Vicenza. Most of Antonio's publications were botanical treatises. He was honored with memberships in scientific societies throughout Italy and Europe.[1]
