Gian Carlo Aliberti (also Giancarlo and Giovanni Carlo; 1 March 1662–1740) was born in Canelli, near Asti in north-west Italy, studied in Rome and became a prolific Piedmontese painter of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.[1]
Many of his frescos, painted in the rococo manner, have been lost along with the churches for which they were made. Two from Sant’Anastasio, Asti (demolished in 1907) are conserved in the town’s art gallery in Palazzo Bellino: Tobia e l’Angelo, and Il Paralitico. A miracle of Saint Clare is depicted at the church of Santa Chiara in Cuneo.[1]
His works are also found in S. Caterina, Casale Monferrato, S. Martino, La Morra, and S. Agostino, Cherasco.[2]
