Antonio Cavallucci

[citation needed] In the early 1780s, he painted mostly portraits, such as those of Francesco Caetani and Teresa Corsini, Duchess of Sermoneta.

[citation needed] His painting, The Origin of Music (1786), was based on illustrations in the book Iconologia (1593) from Cesare Ripa.

[citation needed] Cavallucci also received commissions from Cardinal Romualdo Braschi-Onesti (1753–1817), nephew of the pope Pius VI.

[citation needed] He was inducted into the Accademia di San Luca in 1786, Academy of Arcadia in 1788, and the Congregazione dei Virtuosi al Pantheon in 1788.

[citation needed] In later years, he worked for Cardinal Francesco Saverio Zelada, decorating his titular church San Martino ai Monti in Rome.
