Giovanni Angelo del Maino (ca. 1475-ca. 1535) – Son of the Milanese woodcarver Giacomo del Maino, Giovanni Angelo del Maino, together with his brother Tiburzio, operated a successful workshop for polychromed wooden sculptures and altars during the first third of the sixteenth century.  Based initially in their native Milan, the pair ultimately settled in nearby Pavia, continuing to supply choir stalls, altar structures, crucifixes and other wooden fittings, primarily to churches throughout Lombardy.
