The Bellini was invented sometime between 1934 and 1948 by Giuseppe Cipriani, founder of Harry's Bar in Venice, Italy. (Harry's Bar was a favorite hang-out of a favorite haunt of Ernest Hemingway, Sinclair Lewis and Orson Welles.) Because of its unique pink color, which reminded Cipriani of the color of the toga of a saint in a painting by 15th-century Venetian artist Giovanni Bellini, he named the drink the Bellini.
