Italian painter and pastelist. He completed his first artistic studies in Florence, under the guidance of Vincenzo Meucci (1694-1766), and then went to Parma. From Parma, Guillaume du Tillot, minister of the Bourbon Duke Philip of Parma (1720-1765), sent him for training to Paris from 1752-1756. In Paris Baldrighi was able to work alongside or at least seen the works of painters such as François Boucher, Maurice Quentin de La Tour, Joseph Duplessis, and Alexandre-François Desportes, and in 1754 he was received into the prestigious Académie.
Baldrighi became known for his watercolours and portraits. His portraits include that of duchess Louise Elizabeth, now Museo Glauco Lombardi in Parma and a Portrait of Jacopo Sanvitale in Pastoral Dress in the Rocca of Fontanellato, and a portrait of Roman Charity for the Museum of Angers.
In 1756 he became professor of the Academy of Fine Arts, 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 Palace in 1777.
