Busiri Vici

Busiri Vici is a long-flourishing dynasty of French-Italian architects formed by the union of the French Beausire family with the Vici family of Arcevia. The progenitor of the French side of the dynasty was Jean Beausire (1651-1743), whose descendants thrived as architects under the Ancien Régime. On the Italian side, Andrea Vici (1743-1817) was a second generation architect who gained great regard for his work under Luigi Vanvitelli on the Palace of Caserta and later gained many honours including Vatican patronage. Andrea's daughter Barbara Vici married Beaurire's descendant Giulio Cesare Busiri (1792-1818) in 1815, joining the two families as Busiri Vici.
