Santo Tagliafico, also known as Santino Fortunato Tagliafichi, (1756 - 1829) was an Italian painter, mainly active in Genoa. He trained under Carlo Giuseppe Ratti. He was a member of a prolific family of artists, including father, Nicolò Gaetano (1698-1776) (engineer and scenic designer), and Santo's brothers starting with Andrea (architect); Giuseppe (priest and not artist); Giovanni (architect); Giambattista (engineer and scenic designer); and Domenico (jeweller). Further family members were (Emanuele) Andrea (1729-1812), and Giovanni Andrea.[1] One of Santo's pupils was Gaetano Gallino.[2]
