Raffaello Carboni (15 December 1817 – 24 October 1875) was an Italian writer, composer and interpreter who wrote a book on the Eureka Stockade which he witnessed while living in Australia.[1] Although only a spectator at the Eureka Rebellion he was charged with treason in the Supreme Court of Victoria,[2] but found not guilty of the charge and released on 21 March 1855.[3]
Carboni left Australia on 18 January 1856 for Europe. After periods of travelling, he returned to Italy where he died in Rome in 1875.[1]
