Gaudenzio Botti
Gaudenzio Botti (1698 – 6 March 1775) was an Italian painter of the Baroque period, mainly active in Brescia.
He was born in Brescia, and trained there initially with Faustino Raineri, a local landscape painter. Botti said he painted in the style of the Dutch landscape painter Berghem. He painted both interior and exterior scenes; the interior scenes were often candle-lit.[1]
