Cardinal Luigi Valenti Gonzaga (1725-1808) was a member of the noble Gonzaga family, one of the most influential families during the Italian Renaissance and beyond. The Gonzagas were dukes of Mantua, and many of them held significant roles in the Roman Catholic Church. Cardinal Luigi commissioned Camillo Morigia, a neoclassical architect, to design the new tomb for Dante.
