Giuseppe Baldrighi

Giuseppe Baldrighi

Giuseppe Baldrighi (1722-1803) was an Italian painter of the late-Baroque (Rococo) and early Neoclassic periods.

Born in the town of Stradella, he initially trained with an unknown painter in Naples, where his family lived. By 1750, he was recruited into the Accademia Clementina of Bologna. He was recruited perhaps due to his skill at miniature paintings by Du Tillot, minister of Philip of Bourbon, and sent to study in Paris from 1752-56. Here, he likely encountered Boucher, La Tour, Liotard, Duplessis, and Desportes, and became known for his watercolors and portraits. For example, he painted the duchess Louise Elizabeth, now Museo Lombardi in Parma and the portrait of "Jacopo Sanvitale" in pastoral dress in Rocca di Fontanellato, and a portrait of "Roman Charity" for the Museo di Angers.

In 1756 he became professor of the Accademia Reale and painter to the court of Parma. He actively painted for the Ducal family portraits and a "Triumph of the Faith" for the chapel of Colorno in 1777. He died in Parma in 1803.
