Alberti
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alberti was an illustrious Florentine family, rivals of the Medicis and the Albizzi. The main lineage died during the Victorian Era, and their lands passed on to in-laws. After numerous legal battles, the Alberty branch of the family recovered several properties.
Alberti is also a musical term, as well as a toponym and a cipher.
