Anovelo da Imbonate was an Italian painter and manuscript illuminator of the 14th and 15th century, active in a Gothic style in Milan.
Little is known about his biography. He was likely born near Como, Italy. He signed the illuminated Messale dell'Incoronazione found in the Basilica of San Ambrogio belonging to Gian Galeazzo Visconti. A second work is the Messale di Santa Tecla. Among other influential illuminators of his age, whose works may have been seen by Anovelo are those of Giovannino de' Grassi and Giovanni di Benedetto da Como.
Frescoes in the Oratorio di Santo Stefano, Lentate sul Seveso are attributed to Anovelo.
