**Angelo Martinetti** (1830 in [Rome](/source/Rome) – ?) was an Italian painter, mainly of [still-lives](/source/Still_life) depicting game.

He was the brother of the controversial antiquarian and numismatist, [Francesco Martinetti](/source/Francesco_Martinetti) (1833–1895).[1] Sometime around the year 1870, Angelo donated to the [Louvre Museum](/source/Louvre) a club quite similar to the one depicted in the [Farnese Hercules](/source/Farnese_Hercules) statue. This donation was undertaken through the mediation of Count [Konstanty Tyszkiewicz](/source/Konstanty_Tyszkiewicz) of the [Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth](/source/Polish%E2%80%93Lithuanian_Commonwealth).[2] He exhibited paintings of game in many exhibitions, including at [Turin](/source/Turin) in 1880 and at [Rome](/source/Rome) in 1883.[3][4] In 1882, the art gallery on [Duke Street, St James's](/source/Duke_Street,_St_James's) received some still life paintings from Angelo, which they said were "full of vivid color and imitative quality".[5]
