Biography:

Giacomo Fiamminghi was born in Luzzara, Italy in 1815 and died in 1895. He demonstrated from his youth an innate tendency toward the figurative arts. He began exhibiting in Verona in 1858. Giacomo Fiamminghi was an Italian painter who, after training in Antwerp, spent his known active career in Italy. He was initially a collaborator in the studio of the de Wael brothers in Genoa and later developed an independent practice. While he appears to have enjoyed the patronage of the nobility of Genoa, the scope of his oeuvre is not very well understood. A few portraits and a history painting have been attributed to him.
