] Francesco Mancini (24 April 1679–August 1758) was an Italian painter whose works are known between 1719 and 1756. He was the pupil of Carlo Cignani. ==Biography== A native of Sant'Angelo in Vado, he was a student of Carlo Cignani〔Lione Pascoli, ''Vite de' pittori, scultori, ed architetti moderni''. Roma, De Rossi, 1736, Vol. II, pp. 171-2 ((on-line )).〕 at Forlì and at Bologna and was introduced to academic painting in the manner of the Carracci; echoes of this style of painting can be seen in his juvenile works: the frescoes of the ''Libreria'' in the main hall of the ''Biblioteca Classense'' in Ravenna, and those in Foligno Cathedral of the life of Angela di Foligno.〔Enrico Filippini, ''Gli affreschi del Mancini nel Duomo di Foligno''. Perugia : Unione tipografica Cooperativa, 1917; Estr. da Archivio per la storia ecclesiastica dell'Umbria, v. III, Foligno, 1916.〕 On the advice of the artist Marcantonio Franceschini, vice-principal of the ''Accademia Clementina'' in Bologna, he moved to Rome, where he made contact with Carlo Maratta, also a native of the Marche. This contact with Maratta's more mature work, and with his pupils, is reflected by a development in Mancini's painting. From this period are the frescoes in the Palazzo del Quirinale, those in the Chiesa Nuova dei Filippini in Perugia (1730), in the Chiesa di Santa Maria della Misericordia in Macerata (1736), and others at Sant'Angelo in Vado, Forlì and Rimini. Francesco Mancini was held by his contemporaries as one of the best painters of the time: above all, the clear and luminous tones of his work were admired. He was a member of the French Academy in Rome (1732), the ''Accademia dei Virtuosi'' in the Pantheon of Rome (1743 and 1745) and director of the ''Accademia di San Luca'' (1750–51).〔''Annuario dell'Accademia Nazionale di San Luca'', Roma, 2004 p. 121 ((on-line ))〕〔(Memorie per servire alla storia della romana Accademia di San Luca ) by Melchiorre Missirini, page 227.〕 His pupils included Sebastiano Ceccarini, Domenico Corvi, Niccolò Lapiccola of Crotone〔«LAPICCOLA, NICCOLO», in Shearjashub Spooner (ed), ''A Biographical History of the Fine Arts: Being Memoirs of the Lives and Works of Eminent Painters, Engravers, Sculptors, and Architects.
