Italian, 1654–1726

Antonio Bellucci was an Italian Barbizon school artist. 15 works are cataloged here, principally at Bavarian State Painting Collections. Antonio Bellucci was born in Pieve di Soligo.

Antonio Bellucci (19 February 1654 – 29 August 1726) was an Italian soldier who became a painter of the Rococo period and is best known for his work in England, Germany, and Austria. He was one of the many Venetian-trained artists of his time, including Ricci, Tiepolo, Amigoni, and others, who sought commissions north of Italy, providing patrons with the then-popular Italianate grand-manner frescoes for private palaces.
