Nicola Grassi

1682 – 1748

Italian painter. He trained under Antonio Carneo and settled in Venice about 1709. In 1712, he enrolled in the guild of Friulian painters. Even though he travelled widely, visiting Turkey, Germany, and Dalmatia in 1723-25, he maintained firm contact with his homeland, as is shown by his religious and biblical works. Grassi was also an accomplished portraitist.
