Remigio Cantagallina

Remigio Cantagallina (c. 1582–1656) was an Italian etcher active in the Baroque period.

He is best known for his etchings of landscapes and religious subjects, influenced by Paul Bril.

In 1612–13 he traveled through the Dutch Republic, the Southern Netherlands, and France, which he documented in detailed drawings in pen and wash of buildings, houses, and cityscapes, complete with persons engaged at work or play in the foreground.

Jacques Callot was reputed to be a pupil of Cantagallina, before the former moved to Rome to work with Antonio Tempesta.

After 1648, he tutored in drawing the scientist and nature observer Francesco Redi.
