Filippo Colarossi (21 April 1841 in Picinisco[1] – August 1906) was an Italian artist's model and sculptor who founded the Académie Colarossi in Paris between 1879 and 1880.
He is claimed to have died on 25 August 1906 in Paris.[2] however, Duval[3] states that Colarossi died poor and alone in August 1906 in a little town near Naples. Émile-Bayard[4] reports that Colarossi and his wife (unidentified/unconfirmed second wife; the first had died in 1896), having profited from the sale of a building plot in 1916, retired to Picinisco, his natal village, where they presumably stayed until their deaths. Fuss Amoré and des Ombiaux[5] also maintain that Colarossi returned to Italy. Writing in 1924, they maintained that Colarossi had recently returned to Picinisco, having sold some works by the artist James Abbott McNeill Whistler (1834–1903). No female companion is mentioned in this latter source.
