• Source: Andrea Commodi

Andrea Commodi (1560–1638) was an Italian painter of the early-Baroque period. Born in Florence, but mostly active in Rome, he was a pupil of the painter Cigoli. He painted frescoes in the sacristy of San Carlo ai Catinari. In the Galleria degli Uffizi in Florence there is a preparatory sketch "Fall of the Angels. This is a sketch for a fresco ordered by pope Paulus V Borghese for his palace of Montecavallo on the Quirinale in Rome, but the fresco was never executed. One of his pupils was a juvenile Pietro da Cortona who moved to Rome and became one of the towering figures of the Italian Baroque. Another pupil was Giovanni Battista Stefaneschi (1582–1659).
