Details

Italian painter. Having studied in Rome with Domenico Corvi and Pompeo Batoni, Matteini moved first to Florence (Angelica and Medoro, 1794) and then to Milan, where he encountered Bossi and Appiani. In 1807, he settled in Venice and taught at the Accademia. A prolific portraitist, he brought new life to the genre by studying the work of Reynolds and Gainsborough. //
