Bartolomeo Pinelli (Rome, 20 November 1781 – Rome, 1 April 1835) was an Italian engraver, painter and ceramist.
An extremely prolific graphic artist, according to recent estimates he produced around four thousand engravings and ten thousand drawings.
In his prints he illustrated the customs of the Italian peoples, the great masterpieces of literature, and subjects from Roman, Greek, Napoleonic history, etc. The most recurring theme in general is Rome, its inhabitants, its monuments, the ancient city and the contemporary one. He had among his students the well-known Gorizia portraitist Giuseppe Tominz.
His work as an illustrator has, in addition to its intrinsic artistic value, a significant documentary significance for the ethnography of Rome, Italy and Switzerland. In addition to the repertoire of images dedicated to Roman customs, he illustrated numerous books, creating cycles inspired by the Iliad, Odyssey, Aeneid and Greco-Roman mythology. Works that most reveal the imprint of neoclassicism. This piece has an attribution mark,
