Giovanni Francesco Venturini (1650–1710) was an Italian printmaker of the Baroque period.
He was born in Rome. From the style of his engraving, it is probable that he was a pupil of Giovanni Battista Galestruzzi. He etched several plates from the works of Italian masters, among them the following :
- A set of Plates; after Polidoro da Caravaggio.
- Diana and her Nymphs; after Domenichino.
- The Pulpit of S. Peter's; after Bernini.
- A partial bird's-eye View of Rome.
