Andrea del Castagno (or Andrea di Bartolo di Bargilla) (c. 1421 – 1457) was an Italian painter from Florence, influenced chiefly by Tommaso Masaccio and Giotto di Bondone. His works include frescoes in Sant'Apollonia in Florence and the painted equestrian monument of Niccolo da Tolentino (1456) in the Cathedral in Florence. He in turn influenced the Ferrarese school of Cosme Tura, Francesco del Cossa and Ercole de' Roberti. Andrea del Castagno was born at Castagno, a village near Monte Falterona, not far from Florence. During the war between Florence and Milan, he lived in Corella, returning to his home after its end. In 1440 he moved to Florence under the protection of Bernadetto de' Medici. Here he painted the portraits of the citizens hanged after the Battle of Anghiari on the facade of the Palazzo del Podesta, gaining the nickname of Andrea degli Impiccati.
