Ivan Petrovich Vitali

Ivan Petrovich Vitali (Russian: Иван Петрович Витали) was a Russian sculptor and artist of Italian origin of the 19th century, a representative of Classicism. He was named Giovanni at birth, but his Russian name stuck. Vitali is best known as the author of the rich decoration of St. Isaac's Cathedral in St. Petersburg.

Ivan Vitali had no professional academic education, but his biography is a model of a successful career as the son of an Italian immigrant who achieved recognition through hard work and talent. Vitali's works adorn the squares and museums of the two Russian capitals, Moscow and St. Petersburg.

Vitali was one of the founders of the Moscow Art Society, on the basis of which the famous School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture was formed a few decades later.
