Giovanni Giacomo Barbelli
Giovanni Giacomo Barbelli (17 April 1604 – 12 July 1656) was an Italian painter of the Baroque period, active in Brescia.
He was born in Offanengo, near Crema, and is mentioned as a mentor of Evaristo Baschenis.[1] Among his works are a Nativity altarpiece for the sanctuary of Nostra Signora della Brughiera in Bulliana in the province of Biella. He also painted two altarpieces, a Crucifixion and a Circumcision (attributed) for the Sanctuary della Madonna del Pianto in Ono Degno, near Pertica Bassa.[2] He painted history scenes into quadratura by Domenico Ghislandi for the Palazzo Terzi[3] as well as for the Palazzo Moroni (1649–1654) in Bergamo.[4] Barbello frescoed Glory of the Magdalen and scenes from her life in the presbytery and apse for the church of Santa Maria Maddalena, Cremona.
Bryan comments on a G.G. Barbella born in 1590 in Cremona. He is almost certainly the same artist. He painted an altarpiece of San Lazzaro for the church of that name in Bergamo.[5] One of his pupils was Giovanni Battista Botticchio.[6]
