美洛佐·达·弗利(Melozzo da Forlì, 约公元1438年至公元1494年11月8日)，是15世纪意大利著名的画家。鲁特琴天使收藏在梵蒂冈画廊（Pinacoteca Vaticana）。梵蒂冈画廊可以照相但不能用闪光灯。
The 14 fragments with the Apostles and Angel musicians (Pinacoteca Vaticana Room IV) together with the figure of Christ, (now in the Quirinal Palace) were part of the old decoration of the apse of the Church of the SS. Apostoli in Rome illustrating the Ascension of Christ. The fresco, which was destroyed in 1711, was painted by Melozzo da Forlì around 1480, shortly after the works of restoration on the church for cardinal Giuliano della Rovere, the future Pope Julius II (pontiff from 1503 to 1513). The solemn, monumental figures, strongly foreshortened, testify to the full maturity of the great artist from Forlì, a follower of Piero della Francesca, and his skill in the use of perspective.
