Angelo Monticelli (1778–1837) was an Italian neoclassical painter.
He was a pupil of Andrea Appiani. He painted the second sipario or curtain for La Scala Theatre in Milan (1821), as well as for the theatre in Pesaro.[1]
The painter Angiolo Monticelli (1678–1749) is stated as a Bolognese landscape painter, who studied under Marcantonio Franceschini.[2] It is unclear if he was related to either this Angelo or to Andrea Monticelli.
