Italian painter, Roman school (active 1640-1650 in Rome).
The biographer Pascoli mentions Angeluccio as a student of Claude Gellée (also known as Claude Lorrain), saying that among Claude's disciples there was "of renown only Angeluccio, who died young and was only able to work a little". Perhaps of Flemish origin (he is cited as a Fleming in an eighteenth century inventory of the Valenti Gonzaga collection), he shows the influence of the Flemish landscape technique, with particular closeness to the work of Bril. His typical compositional characteristics are the rendering of a spatial depth, the showing of the horizon through an aperture in the dense foliage of the large trees, the domination of landscape over the relatively tiny figures, and the intense play of light and shadow.
