Angelo Trevisani (1669 – after 1753) was an Italian painter of the late-Baroque, active mainly in Venice.
He was born in Venice (or possibly Capodistria), the brother of Francesco Trevisani who was born in Capodistria, and who painted mainly in Rome under the patronage of cardinal Ottoboni. Angelo was a pupil of Andrea Celesti. He also painted for the Sanctuary of the Madonna del Pilastrello in Lendinara. He was influenced by Antonio Balestra.
Among his pictures were Expulsion of Moneychangers from the Temple for SS. Cosmo e Damiano, Venice; Dream of S. Theresa for San Pietro in Oliveto, in Brescia; and Madonna for the Gallery in Madrid, others included Putti Musicians, the Guardian Angel and the Self-Portrait.
Bartolomeo Nazari was one of his pupils.
Angelo Trevisani (1669-1755),painter and copperplate engraver, also known as Angelo Barbieri, Angelo Trevisan, Angelo Trevisano, and Angelo Barbieri detto Trevisani, was the brother of Francesco Trevisani. He was born in Venice (possibly Capodistria, like Francesco?) in 1669.
Accounts differ on the dates of his birth and death, but it is known that he was living in 1753. Though he occasionally painted historical subjects, he was more employed as a portrait painter, by which branch of art he excelled in and acquired both fame and fortune. He was taught by the Venetian Andrea Celesti (1637-1712) and was also a pupil of Antonio Balestra (1666-1740).
Angelo painted altarpieces for Rovigo and Venice, including Istria. A self-portrait is in the Uffizi, and there are portraits of both of the Trevisani brothers in the painters' portrait gallery in Florence. Putti musicanti, attributed to Angelo (Trevisani) Barbieri.

A Man lifting a Barrell (recto); A draped Nude sitting on a Barrel, holding a rope (verso) red chalk, watermark three crescents, minor loss made up 8 x 10 in. (205 x 269 mm.) are part of a group of drawings which bear a charastistic inscription 'trevisani'. This group is often wrongly attributed to Francesco Trevisani but is in fact by his homonym Angelo Trevisani. A drawing bearing an old attribution to Angelo Trevisani, which is very close in handling to the present one, is in the Gabinetto dei Disegni e delle Stampe, Bologna, G. Gaeta Bertel, Artisti italiani dal XVI al XIX secolo, exhib. cat. Museo Civico, Bologna, 1977, no. 61, fig. 61. Another drawing by Angelo Trevisani was sold at Christie' London, 15 June 1976, lot 26.
Antonio Balestra (1666-1740) was influenced by Trevisani (he may have been a pupil). One of his apprentices, Bartolomeo Nazari, is described as having studied under both brothers Trevisani:
The Nazari were a family of portrait painters of considerable importance in Venice during the 18th century. Bartolomeo, the head of the family, was born of poor parents at Clusone, near Bergamo on May 10, 1699. The protection of Count Ferdinand Thurn and Taxis secured his admission at the age of seventeen [in 1716] into Angelo Trevisani's studio at Venice. His training was completed by a short visit to Rome in 1723, where he studied under Trevisani's brother, Francesco, and under Benedetto Lutti. [F.J.B. Watson, "The Nazari - A Forgotten Family of Venetian Portrait Painters". © 1949 The Burlington Magazine, Vol. 91, No. 552 (Mar., 1949), pp. 75-79.] - http://www.jstor.org/action/showPublisher?publisherCode=bmpl
Angelo was still thriving in 1753, but he is sometimes shown as having died in that year, 1755 or 1758.
