Bartolomeo Biscaino (1632–1657) was an Italian painter of the Baroque period, active in his native Genoa. He was the son, and pupil, of Giovanni Andrea Biscaino. He afterwards became a pupil of Valerio Castelli. His career was cut short by the plague, which visited Genoa, to which his father and himself fell victims. The Dresden gallery once held three paintings, representing Woman taken in adultery, Adoration by Magi, and Circumcision of Christ.He etched several plates, in a style, recalling Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione, including: Moses in bulrushesSusannah and the EldersNativity with AngelsThe CircumcisionThe Magi’s offeringHerodias with head of St. JohnVirgin and infant with AngelsVirgin suckling infant, with St. Joseph Virgin suckling infant with St. Joseph.
