Jacopo Guarana (October 28, 1720 – April 18, 1808) was a Venetianpainter of the late Baroque period who was born in Verona. He was active mainly in Venice and its mainland territories.
Among his most popular works are the wall frescoes at the concert hall of the Ospedaletto, Venice. By the time he painted a Sacred heart of Jesus and Saints for the church of San Polo, his work would have been considered "retardataire", a glimpse of a lapsing past. [1] His son, Vincenzo Guarana, born in 1742, was also a painter.
Pastellist Anna Pasetti was active as a copyist in Guarana's studio.[2]
