Bernardo Strozzi, named il Cappuccino and il Prete Genovese was an Italian Baroque painter and engraver.

Born and initially mainly active in Genoa, he worked in Venice in the latter part of his career. His work exercised considerable influence on artistic developments in both cities. He is considered a principal founder of the Venetian Baroque style. His powerful art stands out by its rich and glowing colour and broad, energetic brushstrokes.
