Filippo Abbiati (1640-1715) was an Italian painter of the Baroque period, active in Lombardy and Turin. Born in Milan, he was a pupil of the painters Antonio Busca, and Alessandro Magnasco was one of his pupils[1]. Ticozzi claims he trained, along with Federigo Bianchi, with Carlo Francesco Nuvolone. Along with Bianchi, he painted the cupola of Sant' Alessandro Martire in Milan. Abbiati alsopainted a St. John preaching in the Wilderness for a church in Saronno[2] .
