Jacopo Bambini (1582–1629, [1] [2] also known as Giacomo Bambini) was an Italian painter of the Baroque period, active mainly in Ferrara.

He trained with Domenico Mona. Along with Giulio Croma ( Giulio Cromer), he set up a painter's academy in Ferrara. He painted three altarpieces for the cathedral: a Flight into Egypt, an Annunciation, and a Conversion of St. Paul. He died at Ferrara. An account of his other works will be found in Barotti's Future e Scolture di Ferrara.
