Giuseppe Rosaccio (ca. 1530-1620): Italian physician, travel writer, geographer, cosmographer and cartographer. He studied philosophy, medicine and law at the University of Padua, earning a doctorate. Because of work, he went to the small town of Tricesim, where, according to Liruti, he lived from 1552, performing not only the medical service, but also other city services. He was a judge in civil cases. He is the author of about forty works, both large and small. Notable works include Viaggio da Venetia a Constantinopoli per mare e per terra from 1574, Al Sereniss. Cosmo Gra Principe di Toscana, il viaggio per Mare, e per terra di Constantinopoli, e di tera Santa from 1601.

In addition to the edition from 1574, biographers cite editions from 1598, 1601, 1604, 1606. All editions are illustrated with copperplate views of cities, islands, fortresses, etc.

These illustrations are today considered the greatest value of these works, and represent the oldest and the most comprehensive graphic representations of Croatian regions and cities. In the edition from 1606, there are maps of Istria, the islands of Rab, Pag, Hvar, Korcula, maps of Split and Trogir, views of Rovinj, Pula, Osor, Šibenik, Skradin, Klis, then plans of Zadar and Dubrovnik.
