'''Gian Francesco Albani''' (26 February 1720 – 15 September 1803) was a [[Roman Catholic]] [[Cardinal (Catholicism)|Cardinal]]. He was a member of the [[Albani (family)|Albani family]].

Albani was born in [[Rome]], the son of [[Carlo Albani]], Duke of Soriano; his grand-uncle was [[Pope Clement XI]] (Gianfrancesco Albani). Furthermore, two of his uncles [[Annibale Albani]] and [[Alessandro Albani]] were cardinals, and was himself uncle of cardinal [[Giuseppe Albani]] (with whom he was, for two years, concurrently cardinal).

In October 1740 he was made [[Protonotary apostolic]], quickly followed by being made the vicar of the patriarchal [[Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore]] in March 1742. Later in the same year, in November, he was made president of the [[Papal chamber]]; and also cleric of the [[Apostolic Chamber]] less than a year later (September 1743). He further became relator of the S. C. of Indulgences and Sacred Relics in 1743.

On 10 April 1747 he was elevated to [[Cardinal Deacon|cardinal deacon]] in the [[consistory]] and was ceremonially elevated and given the [[deaconry]] of [[San Cesareo in Palatio]] on 15 May. He went on to receive the [[subdiaconate]] (November 1747) and the [[diaconate]] (31 March 1748). He acted as Protector of the [[Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth|Kingdom of Poland]] in [[Roman Curia]]. In 1758 he participated in the [[Papal conclave, 1758|Papal conclave]].

He went on to the [[Cardinal Priest|presbyteral order]] on 12 February 1759 over S. Clemente; and the [[Cardinal Bishop|episcopal order]] on 21 July 1760 over the [[suburbicarian see]] of [[See of Sabina|Sabina]]. He further opted for the [[see of Porto e Santa Rufina]] on 17 March 1773 and [[Ostia e Velletri]] on 18 December 1775. He became [[Dean of the Sacred College of Cardinals]] in March 1774. He further participated in the [[Papal conclave]]s of [[Papal conclave, 1769|1769]], [[Papal conclave, 1774-1775|1774–1775]], and [[Papal conclave, 1800|1799–1800]]. He was also made [[archpriest]] of the patriarchal Liberian basilica and Prefect of the S. C. ceremonial.

His political orientation appeared to be pro-Austrian, anti-French and, with the [[First French Empire|French]] invasion of the [[Papal States]] in 1798 he absconded to Naples, before moving to [[Venice]] where the [[Papal conclave, 1800|Papal conclave of 1800]] took place. He died in Rome on the 15 September 1803—his funeral was held in the church of [[Santa Maria in Vallicella]], Rome and was buried in the patriarchal Liberian basilica.
