<p> Viani, Antonio Maria (Called II Vianino) </p> <p> an [[Italian]] painter, native of Cremona, flourished in the latter part of the 16th century. He acquired a knowledge of the art from the eminent painters of Cremona, the Campi, and was then invited by the duke Vincenzio [[Gonzaga]] to Mantua, where he executed several pictures for the churches, among which were St. Michael, in the Church of Sant Agnese; and the representation of Heaven, at the Orsoline, both in the style of his instructors. Besides his work in the churches, he was employed in many other edifices; and after the death of the duke remained in the employ of his three successors. See Spooner, Biog.
