Carlo Francesco Nuvolone (1609–1702) was an Italian painter of the Baroque period, active mainly in Lombardy. He was nicknamed Guido della Lombardia (Guido Reni of Lombardy).[1]

He was born in Milan to a Cremonese father and mannerist painter, Panfilo Nuvolone. After working with his father, he studied under Giovanni Battista Crespi (il Cerano) in the Accademia Ambrosiana in Milan. In that studio he would have encountered Daniele Crespi and Giulio Cesare Procaccini. Of particular interest is his depiction of himself as a painter surrounded by his family of artists, including his daughters playing musical instruments [1]. Among his pupils were Giuseppe Zanata, Federigo Panza, Filippo Abbiati, and Pietro Maggi.[2]
