Guido Antonio de Luca

Also known as

Guido Antonio di Luca

Description

Bolognese fencing master active about 1500, heir of Dardi's school, whose students included Achille Marozzo and probably Antonio Manciolino, and the warriors Giovanni dalle Bande Nere and Count Guido Rangoni. Marozzo wrote that more warriors came from his school than from the Trojan horse. His fencing manual is lost.
