Annibale Albani

Annibale Albani

Annibale Albani (15 August 1682 - 21 September 1751) was an Italian Cardinal.

Albani was born in Urbino. A cousin of Pope Clement XI, he became Cardinal Bishop of Sabina (1711).

As a patron of ecclesiastical literature, he left a valuable library, a gallery of paintings and sculpture, and a cabinet of coins that eventually was added to the Vatican collection. He edited, in two volumes, the letters, briefs, and bulls of Clement XI (1724), the "Menologium Græcorum" (1727), and historical memoirs of Urbino (1722-24).
