Filippo Gherardi

Filippo Gherardi

Filippo Gherardi (1643 - 1704) was an Italian painter of the Baroque period.

Born in Lucca, he was mostly active in Venice and Rome, where he became a member of the large studio of Pietro da Cortona, often working closely with Giovanni Coli. With Coli, Gherardi was initially a trainee of Pietro Paolini in Lucca. One of his masterpieces are the ceiling frescoes in the Palazzo Colonna in Rome, celebrating the participation of a family member in the "Battle of Lepanto".

In Venice, Coli and Gherardi also completed frescoes (1670-72) of the dome of the church of "San Nicolò da Tolentino" with a fresco of the "Glory of San Nicola" and in the church of San Pantalon. In Venice, Coli and Gherardi frescoed the "Library of St George".
