VITELLI, Luisa
(b. ~1680 Firenze, d. ~1730 Firenze)
Italian painter from a noble family close to the Medici court. She took the veil as Sister Teresa Berenice in the Benedictine convent of Saint Appolonia in Florence. She was the spiritual descendent of the anonymous painter-nuns who illuminated many of the brilliant manuscripts of the Middle Ages.
