'''Angelo Viggiani dal Montone''' (Angelo Viziani, Angelus Viggiani; d. 1552) was a [[century::16th century]] [[nationality::Italian]] [[fencing master]]. Little is known about this master's life, but he was been Bolognese by birth and seems to have been an initiate of the tradition of [[Filippo di Bartolomeo Dardi]]. He might also have been connected to the court of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor.{{cn}}

In 1551, Viggiani completed a treatise on warfare, including fencing with the [[side sword]], but died shortly thereafter. His brother Battista preserved the treatise and recorded in his introduction that Viggiani had asked him not to release it for at least fifteen years. Accordingly, a [[Trattato d'uno Schermo (Cod.10723)|presentation manuscript]] of the treatise was completed in 1567 as a gift for Maximilian II (1527-1576), King of the Romans and later Holy Roman Emperor. It was ultimately published in 1575 under the title ''[[Lo Schermo (Angelo Viggiani)|Lo Schermo d'Angelo Viggiani]]''.
