Bartolomeo Pinelli (Rome, November 20, 1781 - Rome, April 1, 1835) was an Italian engraver, painter and ceramist. An extremely prolific graphic artist, according to recent estimates he produced about four thousand engravings and ten thousand drawings. In his prints he illustrated the customs of Italian peoples, the great masterpieces of literature, and subjects from Roman, Greek, Napoleonic history, etc. The most recurring theme in general is Rome, its inhabitants, its monuments, the ancient city and the city contemporary to it. He had among his students the well-known Gorizia portraitist Giuseppe Tominz. His work as an illustrator possesses, in addition to its intrinsic artistic value, a relevant documentary significance for the ethnography of Rome, Italy and Switzerland. In addition to his repertoire of images devoted to Roman costumes, he has illustrated numerous books, producing cycles inspired by the Iliad, Odyssey, Aeneid and Greco-Roman mythology. Works that most reveal the imprint of neoclassicism.
