Arcangelo Resani (1670–1740) was an Italian painter of the Baroque period. He was born at Rome and was a pupil of Giovanni Battista Boncuore. He chiefly excelled in painting animals and hunted game. His simple realistic works were highly esteemed at Siena, Bologna, and Venice. His portrait, with dead game in the background, is in the Uffizi collection.
