Antonio Paglia Painter
Antonio Paglia (Brescia, 1680 – Brescia, 1747) is an Italian painter active mainly in Brescia in a late-Baroque or Rococo style. He is the son of the Baroque painter Francesco Paglia. He collaborated with his brother Angelo. He apparently traveled after 1714 to Venice to apprentice with Sebastiano Ricci. By 1718, he has returned to Brescia, where he specialized in painting altarpieces and religious frescos. Among his main works was a large decorative cycle for the parish church of Chiari.
