armorer, and jeweler. He is first mentioned in 1484 as the master of the dies of the Venetian Mint, where he worked until 1530.

As early as 1487, Camelio was described as sumo maestro in quest’arte (a highest master of this art) and his salary was raised.

Gambello was born in Venice, and initially studied drawing under Giovanni Bellini. He was first noted for his work with medals. Gambello was granted the title "Maestro della Stampe" at the Venetian Mint in 1484. Instead of using the established techniques of casting medals in sand or using the lost-wax process, he perfected a method for stamping medals in high relief.
