Giovanni Francesco Maineri or Gianfrancesco de' Maineri or Gian Francesco Maineri (active 1489–1506) was an Italian painter of the Renaissance, active in Ferrara.
Putatively born in Parma to a painter Pietro de Maineri. He worked in Ferrara for the ruling Este family. His style recales that of the contemporary Ercole de' Roberti.[1] Lorenzo Costa, another Roberti pupil, completed an altarpiece by Maineri, when the latter left for Mantua in 1498.[2]
