Antonio Veladini (10 April 1817 â 6 July 1890) was a Swiss printer, lithographer, and politician from Lugano in the canton of Ticino.
Veladini was born on 10 April 1817 in Lugano, the son of Francesco Veladini, a printer, and Francesca Guioni. He was Catholic and a citizen of Lugano. He attended the Collège Saint-Antoine in Lugano and the institute of Alberto Lamoni in Muzzano, before completing an apprenticeship as a typographer in Zurich. In 1845, he married Demetria Foletti.
From 1836 to 1840, Veladini worked as an associate in his father's printing business (Veladini) alongside his brothers Pasquale and Giovanni Antonio. In 1843, he opened a small lithography workshop in Lugano.
Veladini served as a municipal councillor in Lugano and acted as deputy to his brother Giovanni Antonio in the latter's role as prefect. For many years, he held the position of keeper of the mortgage registry (conservatore delle ipoteche), but was dismissed by the conservative government in 1877. He also worked as an agent for the Ticino Cantonal Bank.
Veladini was a member of the Demopedeutica (Society for Popular Education) from 1860 onwards. As an artillery officer, he participated in the Sonderbund War in 1847.
