Tommaso Malvito

Tommaso Malvito (died 1524) was an Italian sculptor.

Little is known about his life. He was born in Como (Lombardy) in the late 15th century, and was a pupil of the Milanese Pietro di Martino. From 1476 to 1483 he was in Marseille, where he worked under Francesco Laurana.

Malvito is mentioned for the first time as an autonomous artist in 1484, in his Naples workshop which he held until in 1508, together with his son Giovanni Tommaso Malvito. In the 1490s he worked to the crypt (Succorpo, commissioned by Cardinal Oliviero Carafa, whose statue there is generally attributed to Giovanni Tommaso) of the city's Cathedral and the marble portal of the church of Santissima Annunziata.
