Antonia Bertucci-Pinelli

Antonia Bertucci-Pinelli (died c. 1640) was an Italian woman painter of the Baroque period. She was born in Bologna, and was instructed in art by Lodovico Carracci. She painted some pictures for the churches; among others, the "Guardián Angel" for San Tommaso; and "St Philip & St. James" for the church dedicated to those saints. But her most celebrated performance was her "St. John the Evangelist" for the Annunziata, painted from a design of Lodovico Carracci. Her maiden name was Pinelli, but she married Giambattista Bertucci (not Giovanni Battista da Faenza).
