Andrea Cherubini (Rome, 1833 – Capri, 1905) was an Italian painter. He studied in Rome and here he presented, in 1865, to the Società Amatori e Cultori, a series of landscapes of Rome and the Roman countryside: Green field with ducks, Buffaloes and ancient ruin, Landscape with cattle, View of the Colosseum. For the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, in Castro Pretorio (not far from Termini Station), he painted canvases with religious subjects. Federico Campanili, active in Rome as a micromasaicist from 1854 to 1904, created micromosaic paintings by Andrea Cherubini, including Flowers with Woodpecker Bird (1900), 77.5x94.5 cm. Andrea Cherubini painted still lifes and genre paintings and, from 1872, also Capri landscapes: Marina di Capri (1873), Sea from the island of Capri, Blue Grotto (1879), Leap of Tiberius (1885), Customs of Capri. In 1888 he moved permanently to Capri, like other painters, Italian and foreign, who were attracted by the mild climate, the natural landscape and the simple habits of the inhabitants. Identical life choices were made by the painters Antonino Leto, Charles Caryl Coleman and Bernardo Hay in the 19th century and, in the 20th century, by the Milanese painter Carlo Perindani. Andrea Cherubini married a girl from Capri and went to live in a house in Marina Grande. He also painted View of the Island of Ischia and Surroundings of the Island of Ischia.
