Annibale Brugnoli (22 February 1843 – 11 December 1915) was an Italian painter, mainly of genre and historical pieces, in oil and fresco.
[1] Brugnoli and his fellow student at the academy, Ulisse Ribustini, then moved to Naples to work in the studio with Domenico Morelli.
In Milan, he decorated the grand hall of Villa Marsaglia and the cupola of the Teatro Lirico Internazionale.
In Perugia, he frescoed the main salon of the Palace Hotel and painted the large canvases on the history of Umbria in the hall of the Banca Commerciale.
Although dismissed by his contemporaries, the paintings were masterful works of art, depicting the historical scenes and subjects such as the Battle of Lake Trasimene and a reception for Umberto I.
