Filippo Bigioli (San Severino Marche, June 4, 1798 - 1878) was an Italian painter, active in a late neoclassical style[1]
In 1861, he painted a series of over two dozen large canvases for a Galleria Dantesca about Dante and his works, most of which were exhibited initially in the Palazzo Altieri in Rome, but later when on tour, including to London.[2] He was helped in the planning by Romualdo Gentilucci, and coloring by Vincenzo Paliotti, Guerra, and professor Alfonso Chierici.[3] He helped fresco the palace (destroyed) and villa of Count Torlonia in Rome. A collection of his works is on display in the Palazzo Comunale of San Severino.[4]
