Karl Ivanovich Bergamasco (1830-1896) was a Russian photographer of Italian origin. He was one of the most fashionable and successful portrait painters of the XIX century. Bergamasco's works have won gold and silver medals at exhibitions in Russia and Europe. In 1863, Bergamasco became the "photographer of the Imperial theaters". In 1865, he was appointed "photographer of His Imperial Highness Grand Duke Nikolai Nikolaevich" (the elder). In 1896, Bergamasco was going to film the coronation of Nicholas II, but died several days before.
