He also painted figures for architectural frescoes, such as the vault of San Matteo (c. 1720) in Pisa, along with his brother Francesco Melani (also an architect, April 7, 1675 – August 21, 1742).[2] Among the pupils of Melani were Tommaso Tommasi, Giuseppe Bracci, Jacopo Donati, Bartolommeo Santini, and Ranieri Gabbrielli.[3]
