Tommaso Conca

Tommaso Maria Conca (1734–1822), was an Italian painter and draftsman, active mostly in Rome.

[2] In 1770, Tommaso was made member of Accademia di San Luca, Rome's guild of painters.

[1] In Sala del Sileno, above a Roman statue of Silenus he set scenes from that character, along with Bacchus and his followers.

[10] At the end of his life, he completed another fresco in the Vatican's Museo Chiaramonti, which celebrates the restitution of paintings that had been taken to Musée Napoléon.

[11] Following Anton Raphael Mengs he shifted to a Neoclassical style.
