MONTFORT, Octavianus
(b. ~1650 ?, d. ~1696 Torino)
Italian painter. He is known for producing refined still-lifes painted in tempera on parchment. There are only two still-lifes by him dated 1680 and 1689, respectively (both in private collection), therefore the chronological order of his paintings cannot be determined. However, it is established that he followed the examples of Giovanna Garzoni who was active in Turin in the 1630s.
