Antonia Bertucci-Pinelli


Antonia Bertucci-Pinelli was an Italian painter of the Baroque period. She was born in Bologna, and was instructed in art by Lodovico Carracci. She painted some pictures for the churches; among others, the Guardian Angel for San Tommaso; and St Philip & St. James for the church dedicated to those saints. But her most celebrated work was a St. John the Evangelist for the Annunziata, painted from a design of Lodovico Carracci. Her maiden name was Pinelli, but she married Giambattista Bertucci.
