Vico Viganò was a prominent Italian artist, architect, and printmaker primarily known for his contributions to the Milanese art scene during the transition between the 19th and 20th centuries. While he was a multifaceted creator, he is most celebrated for his mastery of etching.
Viganò also worked as an architect and poet. One of his most ambitious projects was a 1926 proposal for a monumental bell tower in Milan's Piazza del Duomo, which, though never built, became a lasting influence on his son's Vittoriano Viganò (1919–1996) a towering figure in Italian Brutalist architecture.
