Antonio Filocamo

Antonio Filocamo (Messina, 1669–1743) and his brother Paolo were Italian painters of the Baroque period.

Natives of Messina, they are noticed by Hackert in his Memorie de' Pittori Messinesi.

They executed conjointly several works, both in oil and in fresco, in the former of which Antonio was very superior to Paolo.

Their principal works are in the churches of Santa Caterina di Valverde and San Gregorio, at Messina, where they both died of the plague in 1743.

In 1712 Antonio and his brother decorated the choir of the Acireale Cathedral, depicting the Ascension of the Virgin.
