Gasparo Martellini (Florence, February 15, 1785 -October 20, 1857) was an Italian painter. ==Biography== He was a pupil of Pietro Benvenuti at the Academy of Fine Arts, Florence. He developed an affinity to the atavistic Purismo style of Lorenzo Bartolini. He helped paint frescoes in the ''Hall of Ulysses'' in the Pitti Palace. The frescoes represent Ulysses returning to Ithaca. He painted in 1841 the lunette depicting ''Session of Experiments at the Accademia del Cimento'' for the Tribune of Galileo. For the Spinelli Chapel of the Church of Santa Croce, he painted lunettes and walls with ''Coronation of the Virgin'' and ''Church Militant and the prayer by Florence after the plague of 1633''. 〔(Trecanni Encyclopedia ) short biography.〕〔( ''Guida pittorica ossia analisi intorno lo stile delle diverse scuole di pittura e degli artisti italiani e stranieri antichi e moderni'' ), by Alessandro Petti; Publisher N.
