Jacopo Appiani
Jacopo Appiani (also Jacob or Giacomo Appiani , * 22. June 1687 in Porto Ceresio , † 24 June 1742 ) was an Italian plasterer of rococo .
Life
He was a son of the mason Joseffe (Giuseppe) Appiani (1644; † before 1721) from Porto Ceresio and younger brother of the plasterer Pietro Francesco Appiani (1670-1724), father of the painter Giuseppe Appiani . He was married to Marianna Vianni, whom he married on February 10, 1721 in Porto Ceresio. He initially worked in the workshop of Pietro Francesco Appiani in Munich. From 1712 to 1716 he represented his brother there while he was in France and took over the business after his death in 1724. He later began to work with Franz Beer and Michael Beer von Bleichten and to expand the workshop's sphere of activity to include Switzerland. From the second half of the 1720s, his work exhibits Régence style elements. He died in 1742 in his hometown Porto Ceresio.
