Why Andrea D'Angiolo matters
"Andrea D'Angiolo" is best understood as a naming and identification question rather than as a distinct market personality. The name most plausibly resolves to Angiolo D'Andrea, 1880 to 1942, an Italian Symbolist and Liberty style painter whose sales appear across market databases; auction-record aggregators such as askART render his name in the inverted order "Andrea D'Angiolo." Collectors should also know that a similarly spelled form, "Andrea d'Angiolo," is a separate historical patronymic occasionally used in older scholarship for the Renaissance painter Andrea del Sarto, Florence, 1486 to 1530, an unrelated artist active roughly four centuries earlier. Confusing these two men risks misattributing both authorship and price history.

Biography
Public sources converge on Angiolo D'Andrea as a painter born in 1880 who died in 1942, described by Fondazione Bracco as working in the Symbolist and Liberty (Italian Art Nouveau) styles. His exact birthplace is not settled in the sources reviewed for this profile: one account cites Rauscedo, in Pordenone province, while another cites Ranzano di Campiglia Marittima, in Livorno province. Fondazione Bracco organized what it describes as the first monographic exhibition of his work; an exact date for that exhibition was not confirmed here. His name also appears in the Musee d'Orsay's artists catalog, though whether the museum holds a specific work by him was not confirmed in the sources reviewed.
This artist is not Andrea del Sarto, born Andrea d'Agnolo in Florence in 1486 and died in 1530, whose historical patronymic is sometimes transliterated "Andrea d'Angiolo" in older reference sources, including the Getty Research Institute's Union List of Artist Names and Christie's lot cataloguing. The two men have no documented connection, and any catalog entry, image license, or auction lot using either name string should be checked against these dates before being treated as evidence about the other. Several unrelated living individuals also use the name Andrea D'Angiolo on social media as of 2026; none of them were established, in the sources reviewed, as either historical painter.
Critical reception
Research for this profile did not surface a verifiable, exact quotation about Angiolo D'Andrea from a named critic in a major outlet. Fondazione Bracco has organized institutional programming around his work and frames him within Italian Symbolism and Liberty style painting, but this profile limits itself to what could be directly confirmed in the sources reviewed and does not repeat uncited characterizations.
Market
Market databases including Artprice, Invaluable, and MutualArt show an established auction history for Angiolo D'Andrea, with Artprice citing more than twenty public auction appearances, mostly paintings. Specific top sale prices, works, and dates were not accessible or independently confirmed in the sources reviewed for this profile, so no auction record is stated here. Readers should also be aware that a high-value Old Master drawing sale associated with the alternate name "Andrea d'Angiolo, called Andrea del Sarto" has occurred at auction, but that sale concerns the unrelated Renaissance painter described above and is not part of this artist's market record.
What collectors should know
The largest practical risk with this name is misidentification. At least three distinct identities circulate under closely related strings: Angiolo D'Andrea, an Italian Symbolist and Liberty style painter working from roughly 1880 to 1942, whose name is sometimes catalogued in inverted order as "Andrea D'Angiolo"; Andrea del Sarto, the Florentine Renaissance painter whose historical patronymic is occasionally rendered "Andrea d'Angiolo"; and unrelated living individuals who use the name on social media. Anyone relying on a catalog entry, auction lot, or price history under any of these strings should confirm which identity the record actually describes before treating it as evidence of value or authenticity. No catalogue raisonne was confirmed for Angiolo D'Andrea in the sources reviewed, and specific auction prices, works, and dates could not be independently verified for this profile, so any single result should be treated with caution rather than as an established record.
