  Gian Francesco Albani - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gian Francesco Albani (26 February 1720 – 15 September 1803) was a Roman Catholic Cardinal born to a significant religious family in Rome.
The Albanis had come to Italy from Albania in the fifteenth century and soon entered ecclesiastical and secular nobility—the first cardinal of the family was Gian Girolamo Albani in 1570.
Furthermore, two of his uncles Annibale Albani and Alessandro Albani were cardinals, and was himself uncle of cardinal Giuseppe Albani (with whom he was, for two years, concurrently cardinal).

 Biography – Pope Clement XI – The Papal Library
His father was Charles Albani, and his grandfather, Horatio Albani, had received from Urban VIII the high dignity of senator of the city of Rome.
The advice of Albani was adopted by the rest of the cardinals, and the pope communicated it as his decision to Charles II.
The four theologians who obtained such a victory over Albani's scruples were Anthony Massoulie, a Dominican; Charles Francis Varese, a Minor Observantine and penitentiary of Saint John Lateran; Joseph Mary Tommasi, a Theatine and subsequently a cardinal, who was beatified in the reign of Pius VII; and Joseph Altaro, a Jesuit and pontifical theologian.

Francesco Albani, or (Albano) (August 17, 1578 - October 4, 1660), Italian painter, was born at Bologna.
His father was a silk merchant, and intended to bring up his son to the same occupation; but Albani was already, at the age of twelve, filled with sostrong an inclination for painting, that on the death of his father he devoted himself entirely, to art.
Albani, after having greatly improved himself in the school of the Caracci, went to Rome, where he opened an academy and resided for many years.

Rosaspina believed that he could translate the color and style of a painting only if the work was in front of him as he engraved, which is one reason it took him so long to complete this, his most famous print.
Because there were long intervals between his visits to Milan, where Albani's painting was located, several proofs in different stages of completion survive.
Albani's famous painting of dancing cupids, now in the Pinacoteca di Brera, Milan, is based on Ovid's account of Proserpina's ravishment by Pluto (the Greek Hades), presented as a song sung by the Muses and decided to Proserpina's mother Ceres (the Greek Demeter).
