Antoninus of Florence (1389-1459) was an Italian Dominican friar who ruled as Archbishop of Florence from 1446 until his death. He was canonized on May 31, 1523 by Pope Adrian VI. Michael Wenssler (14??-1499) was a Basel based printer. Born in Strasbourg, he became a citizen of Basel in 1473 and printed there until 1490. He sold his printing press in 1490 to settle debts, and worked briefly in France, returning to Basel in 1499.
