Francesco Jacovacci (1840 — 1908) was an Italian painter, often painting historical canvases and costume genre pieces.
He was born in Rome. He was a pupil of Alessandro Capalti and Alessandro Marini. Jacovacci collaborated with Cesare Fracassini in completing the frescoes for the church of San Lorenzo fuori le Mura. His paintings were often sold through the Goupil gallery.[1] Jacovacci won an award at 1880 Turin National Exposition with the painting of Michelangelo davanti dalla salma di Vittoria Colonna (Michelangelo before the body of his mistress Vittoria Colonna)[2][3] Among other works are The Gondola (1876).[4] Jacovacci died in Rome in 1908.
