Matteo Tassi (Perugia, October 6, 1831 – 1895) was an Italian painter, best known for his decorative frescoes and restorations. ==Biography== His first studies were in his native Academy, then he moved to Rome to study perspective and decoration under professor Annibale Angelini at the Accademia di San Luca. In 1856, with Alessandro Mantovani, he worked on part of the restoration of the frescoes of the Vatican Loggia. From 1860 to 1864, he worked in Florence. He completed decorations in Civitavecchia, L'Aquila, at Teatro Comunale of Todi (where he worked alongside Alfonso Morganti),〔( Teatro Comunale of Lodi ), ceiling frescoes〕 and the Teatro Imperiale of Pesaro. In 1876, his former master Mantovani, obtained for him another commission to fresco a third Vatican Loggia, with frescoes depicting vedute of Rome. He also painted fresco decorations in Amelia and Recanati 〔( Istituto Matteucci ) biography.〕 From 1880-1882, he pursued decoration of the dining room, sitting-room, and an antique salon in the palace of the Prince di Monaco. But much of his work was completed in Perugia. He painted in casa Tambaldi, and at the Cassa di Risparmio of Gallenga, and to the train station and church of San Costanzo, the latter which he completed in Byzantine style. In Perugia, he painted the ceilings of two cafes : Baduel (torn down) and the Caffè Melinelli〔 ( Caffè Melinelli ): from article titled ''Una Volta a Perugia, cronaca di un caffè di fine Ottocento''. by Maria Luisa Martella 14/12/2012.〕〔Also cited in ''La Pittura in Italia: l'Ottocento'', Volume 2, (1991) Page 1036, by Enrico Castelnuovo.
