Franci de Castellvi

Francesc de Castellví i de Vic (also Franci or Francisco de Castellví y Vic, died September 6, 1506) was a poet, nobleman and politician from Valencia, Spain. He was the baron and lord of Benimuslem Mulata, and was an advisor in the court of King Ferdinand II of Aragon.

He is one of the authors of Scachs d'amor or Chess of Love, a poem based on a chess game and written in valencian, between Franci de Castellvi (as Mars) and Narcís Vinyoles (as Venus), while Bernat Fenollar (as Mercury) comments and establishes the rules. It is the first documented game played with the modern rules of chess, at least concerning the moves of the queen and bishop.
