'''Giuseppe Nogari''' was an [[Italy| Italian]] painter of the [[Rococo]], active in [[Venice]], where he was born and died (1699 - 1763). He mainly painted portraits, either real or of historical figures. He is said to have trained under [[Antonio Balestra]] and followed the styles of [[Piazzetta]], [[Rosalba Carriera]], [[Jacopo Amigoni]], and [[Rembrandt]]. He was patronized by two German Patrons in Venice, [[Sigismund Streit]] and [[Johann Matthias von der Schulenburg]].
From 1739 to 1742 Nogari worked for the [[House of Savoy]] in [[Turin]], painting canvases and decorating the [[Royal Palace
[[Alessandro Longhi]] was one of his pupils. In 1997, a painting of Nogari was used in a sting wherein employees, including a Old Master's expert of [[Sotheby's]] in London, smuggled this painting out of Italy.
