Vincenzo I Gonzaga, hertog van Mantua door Frans Pourbus (II) (1600-1601) privécollectie in Rome.

Vincenzo I Gonzaga (Mantua, 21 september 1562 – aldaar, 9 februari 1612) was hertog van Mantua en Monferrato van 1587 tot zijn dood. Hij was een zoon van hertog Guglielmo I en Eleonora van Oostenrijk.

Hij was tweemaal gehuwd. Op 2 maart 1581 trouwde hij in Piacenza met Margherita Farnese (1567–1643), dochter van Alessandro Farnese, hertog van Parma. Dit huwelijk bleef kinderloos en werd in 1583, na heel wat politiek getouwtrek en bemoeienissen van het Vaticaan, ongeldig verklaard.

Vincenzo huwde voor de tweede maal op 29 april 1584 te Mantua met Eleonora de' Medici (1566-1611), dochter van Franceso I, groothertog van Toscane. Met haar had hij de volgende kinderen:

Daarnaast had hij kinderen bij verschillende maîtresses:

  • bij Agnese de Argotta, markiezin van Grana
    • Francesco (ca. 1588 – ?), bisschop van Nola
    • Silvio (1592 – november/december 1612)
  • bij Felicita Guerrieri
    • Francesca (ca. 1593 – ?).
