Andrea Lanzani

Andrea Lanzani (c. 1645 - 1712) was an Italian painter of the Baroque period. He was born in Milan and died in Vienna. He was the pupil of the painter Luigi Scaramucci and Antonio Busca in Milan, and later of Carlo Maratta in Rome. He painted in a style recalling Giovanni Lanfranco. Later he moved to Vienna to paint for the Hapsburg court.

His painting of "St. Carlo Borromeo" is considered among his masterpieces.
