Giuseppe Monticone
Italian painter
Giuseppe Monticone (4 February 1769 – 26 January 1837) was an Italian painter, active mostly in Turin painting portraits.
Biography
He was born in Turin, where he trained under Laurent Pecheux and gained a royal stipend. He was recruited in 1806 to teach design at the public Lyceum of Turin. In 1814, he was named professor of Design in the Royal College of Turin. In 1821, with the death of the aged Pecheux, Monticone was named honorary painter to the monarch. With the restoration of the Academy of Fine Arts, he was elected secretary. Among his pupils at the Academy were Ferdinando Cavalleri of Savigliano, Michele Cusa of Varallo, and Luigi Barne (1798-1837) of Turin. Monticone, along with Marchese Roberto d'Azeglio, played a role in reorganizing the painting collection of the Royal Palace.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Giuseppe Monticone” as italian painter. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as italian painter. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 20, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q61440697. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1769, 1837, 1806 and 1814.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
