Oliviero Gatti

Oliviero Gatti (1579[1]–1648[2]), an Italian painter and engraver, was a native of Parma.

He was a scholar of Giovanni Lodovico Valesio, and, from the resemblance of his style, although greatly inferior, to that of Agostino Carracci, was probably instructed in engraving by that master.

His works as a painter are little known; but he engraved several plates, some of which are after his own designs, which possess considerable merit.
