Angiolo Tommasi (Livorno, 1858 - Torre del Lago Puccini, Lucca, 1923) was an Italian painter, active in the Macchiaioli movement. He was the brother of the painter Ludovico and cousin of the painter Adolfo Tommasi; all three were influential for the arts in their native Tuscany in the late 19th and early 20th-centuries. Angiolo painted both genre and landscape themes.
Angiolo first studied at the Scuola Comunale di Disegno in his native city under professor Natale Betti]] and Angiolo Lemmi, and then moved to Florence, where he enrolled for 2 years in the Academy of Fine Arts under Giuseppe Ciaranfi. Afterwards he was mentored, like his other family members in painting landscapes by Silvestro Lega.
