Alessandro Milesi (1856-1945) was an Venetian painter, mainly depicting genre subjects.
Milesi was a pupil of Napoleone Nani at the Venice Academy of Fine Arts from 1869-1874, when he followed his master to Verona, returning to his hometown in 1876.
The work he presented at the national exhibitions held in Milan (1881) and Venice (1887) established his reputation as a painter of everyday Venetian life, carrying on the tradition of
Giacomo Favretto but also influenced by the new artistic approach of Ettore Tito and Cesare Laurenti.
