Vincenzo di Benedetto di Chele Tamagni (born April 10, 1492 in San Gimignano ; † around 1530 there; also Vincenzo da San Gimignano or Vincenzo Tamagni ) was an Italian painter .

Gimignano worked in Montalcino from 1510 to 1512 and then went to Rome , where he became Raphael's assistant and worked for him in the loggias of the Vatican . After Raphael's death, he painted a Madonna with saints for San Girolamo and the Birth of Mary for Sant'Agostino in his hometown.

Then he returned to Rome, from where the sacking of the city (1527) drove him away . He went to San Gimignano and painted in the refectory of Santa Caterina the wedding of St. Katharina and for Sant'Agostino a Madonna with angels and saints (plague altar) and an altar of the Holy Cross. In the Staatliche Museen Berlin (Gemäldegalerie) he is assigned a predella plaque. He died in San Gimignano after 1530. Giorgio Vasari dedicated a biography (1550/1568) to him.
