Michele Pagano
Michele Pagano (1697–1732)[1] was an Italian painter of the late Baroque period, active in his natal city of Naples.
Pagano initially trained under , known as il Maltese. Working later with Bernardo de Dominici, he became a follower of Franz Joachim Beich, and flourished as a landscape painter or vedutista, but died in his mid-thirties. He left di Dominici to work with Gaetano Martoriello. He is said to have died from Mercury treatment of venereal disease.[2] It is unknown if he is a distant relation to Francesco Pagano, a painter of the 15th century in Naples.
