Antonio Molinari, also known as il Caraccino, (21 January 1655 – 3 February 1704) was an Italian painter of the Baroque era in Venice. The son of a painter, Molinari was apprenticed to Antonio Zanchi in Venice. He was strongly influenced by the vigorous and athletic paintings of Neapolitan painters such as Luca Giordano. He typically painted tumultuous narratives of mythology and religion in large canvases. This would influence his pupil (1697–1703), Giovanni Battista Piazzetta, and his grand manner style. His works include:
Feeding of the Five Thousand (1690; San Pantalon, Venice)
Darius and His Family Before Alexander (1690)
Judith with the Head of Holofernes (1690)
Death of Uzzah (c. 1695; Santa Maria degli Angeli in Murano)
Fight of Centaurs and Lapiths (c. 1698, Ca' Rezzonico).
