Vincenzo de' Rossi (b. Fiesole, 1525; d. Florence, 1587) was a sculptor of the Italian Renaissance. In 1534, he started his career in Florence as an apprentice to Baccio Bandinelli. Upon completing his training, he moved to Rome where he received his first independent commission from a consortium of artists known as the Pontifica Accademia dei Virtuosi al Pantheon in 1547. The subject of his sculpture, the Young Christ with St. Joseph, was to be displayed in the Pantheon chapel.
